Title: Bike bogging down and stalling after 20 miles or so of riding
Post by: motozagogo on June 04, 2020, 08:54:56 PM
Hi All - my 1992 FJ1200 has been bogging down and stalling after about 20 or so mile ride. In order to get her back going,,, need to give her choke and rev the heck out of her. Any ideas,,,?

Try unlocking the fuel cap. If that fixes it then you have a blocked vent in the cap.

   When was the fuel filter changed last? I think Krusty may have the correct answer but the next place I'd check is the filter.
Do the simple things first.
   Regards, Pete.

What year is your FJ? 84 to 87 is gravity feed, 89+ has a fuel pump.
