G'day all, I have just joined and want to pick some brains on a problem I'm having with my k5 700 kingquad efi,
When I start it up cold it runs like it's lean, it will stall if I try and give it any throttle until it warms up, I changed plugs, give it a service, checked the fuel filter, aircleaner ect and none made any differance, I am running some injector cleaner in atm to see how that goes, I suspect that it's a sensor somewhere that gives a rich mix when cold isn't working? the problem seems to get worse as the fueltank level gets lower as well? any ideas? cheers

ok, was just chatting to a bloke that said to check the valve clearance, reckons it is common on the suzuki's to have that problem when cold? bit tight on the inlet? thoughts?

check battery voltage or test running with a jumper battery connected, as soon as the battery gets down a squeeze [ even though it seems ok ] they sometimes play up when cold.

I had a check of the battery/running voltage and that was fine, looked up nyroc and found some info on there, run a ecu test and found out the throttle position sensor was slightly out of adjustment (showing up as low on the dash readout) it is only like this if tested cold , tests fine if checked hot, I will look into that one a bit more and see if that fixs it. thanks again
