1979 honda atc won't start?
My honda atc won't start up spark plug has spark emptied stale fuel and added new fuel sparkplug is getting fuel. Could it be the carberator? Tell me everything it could be please and thanks!
ATC's of that era (I believe) had breaker points ignition rather than modern electronic ignition.
If it's been sitting for very long the points could be corroded. Check, clean or replace, and set the point gap.
How do I set the point gap
The problem is that it is too old. Take it to the junkyard and buy yourself a new car.
- What battery does my 1979 Honda CM400t need? Yes I have checked the manual, I was just wondering if someone could provide a link to the specific battery. The manual says it needs a 12 volt 12 amperes battery, thanks!
- No spark condition in a 1979 Honda CB250T? I picked this bike up a couple days ago and it has no spark. It has a kickstarter, but no battery. It also has CDI ignition electric start. The specific CDI is TIA01-20, does this bike need a battery for spark even for the kickstart?
- My 1983 Honda nighthawk 650 won't start with the electric start? I recently replaced the ignition coils because the old ones were getting heat soaked and the bike would die, however now the bike won't start with the electric start it turns over fin and the starter sounds fine but it won't start occasionally it ll start when it's cold or try to but I've been having to bump start it in order to ride it. So what's making it do this? Could it be the kill switch? Or something else?
- Is the 1979 honda cb750f super sport reliable? A guy in town is selling one with 11,000 miles on it and says it runs great. Are there any known problems with them? I don't want to buy a bike that will end up needing lots of work to fix when it's only worth like $1000 anyways.
