02 F4i.. wont start
ok i come here for all my tech questions cause some of you know what you are doing .. :moocow:
anyway a buddy of my went down yesterday in the city after hitting what seems to resemble a ski jump on an exit of the FDR by the brooklyn bridge. the bike sustained minimal cosmetic damaged ( a few scrapes and cracks but nothing that cant be fixed with a few zip ties) the only thing is his Frame slider is bend, and it looks like it is bend where it attaches to the engine... it looks liek oil is sl leaking form somwhere inside the frame (not from the case covers cause they are all intact) we have not had a chance to tear apart the bike yet but it is not kicking over... battery is charged but i do not hear the starter trying to kick over or the enging attmepting to kick over either... :arrr: what could it be? could the frame slider crack the engine or make a whole in it? could it have seized the engine? can it be the starter? |
check to make sure the kill switch is set to on.
make sure it is in neutral. Check the kickstand override switch. There is a tip over sensor in the front fairing between the headlights. Make sure it is still mounted and facing the correct way. Check the main wire harness up by the headlights and make sure that is all connected. |
WILL DO THANKS

Hey soda was this spok?
|
how long was it on its side?? cuz you probably got oil in the cylinders and its hydro locked:nod2:
|
Soda, that oil you are describing is probably oil that came out from the top of the engine due to the bike laying on its side for a prolonger period of time > 1 minute. so most likely it is not a leak.
If the fuel pump is priming but the starter is not cranking the block over then most likely there is oil in the cylenders, pull the plugs and get that oil out some how. |

buckle up and Borka - yes the bike was on its side but according to SPOk not more than a minute yest when i took of the tank there was oil in the airfilter and look sliek it got inside. how do i get the oil out of there... what to do if it is hydro locked.... on a side note BUckle up any good news for me? |
Quote:
Most likely it is just hydrolocked due to the oil not letting the cylender move, once you get the oil out, its should fire up. be warned it will be very smokey for a few minutes. also clean the plugs if they have oil on them. |
