I believe I may have snapped my choke cable on my F3. The lever is sloppy and loose now, and the bike wont start, which is why I think this is the prob! Any advice you could give me to trouble shoot and fix this would be great! And anyone in or around Orlando that would care to help a sista out gimmie a shout, LOL Thanks

if you snapped the cable, you need a new one

 

to replace your going to need to take off the tank and the whole air box assembly to get to it. pretty easy to do. about a half hour worth of work.

 

i am in lake helen, i should have the parts to fix it here

 

I will take it apart tomorrow and see what exactly the prob is.........If I run into any problems I will letcha know. Thanks Guys!!

pull that apart and check to see if your cable is broken, if it is, put the choke off and try push starting it (bump start). your plugs are probably fouled so it won't start. that happens a lot on our f2/f3's. things foul out real easy and flood easily.

 

Ok I took it apart, cable was not broken just sticking. Lubed it and put it back together.........now it wont turn over. It tries to start then backfires a flame 3 foot long. I am getting fuel cuz the pump kicks on when I turn the key, again I am lost! HELP!!!
