Thistledown: Tanker
http://mike-thistledown.blogspot.com/2015/07/tanker.html
A window into random stuff that interests me; but mostly motorcycles. Saturday, 4 July 2015. A friend recently had a lot of problems with his bike misbehaving. It was an intermittent problem which came and went. In the end it turned out to be just a blocked fuel filter. Having cleaned out all of the goop which had accumulated on the old filter the problem went away and hasn’t reappeared, although that might be down to fitting an additional external filter which gets cleaned regularly. So, be warned.
