Motorcycle Repair: 1985 Goldwing LTD.- It will..., shively, carburetors


Question
1985 Goldwing LTD.- It will start when cold, but as the engine warms up to operating temp. it begins to rough idle and shuts down. What do you think is the problem ?           G.A.

Answer
Hi Guy,

I suspect the carburetors have varnished fuel circuits.

Does the engine start and run with choke, but rough running happens as choke is eventually turned off?
