Starting Issues
HI
I own a SV650S, 2005. Having trouble starting after bike has been off the road for a while (6 months). I am turning off car battery, have new plugs which are sparking, added some fresh fuel. The best is has done is start for a second and then die repeatedly. When turning fuel flows from the tank so I dont think its field pump. I am thinking injectors/sensors. Next actions to remove/clean injectors with carb cleaner, flush tank and use fresh petrol and try again. Any advice much appreciated  Cheers Rob |

Re: Starting Issues
Any fault codes shown?
I would be cautious about using carb cleaner on the injectors, carb cleaner is aggressive stuff and the injectors need a complete seal.
