Today i had a delivery of another fuel tank (a used one) for the Enfield as the other one is fucking scrap!!
Anyway i went down to the batcave and started to swap a few bits from the old one to the used fuel tank.
I put the injector back on after a good clean then the other bits, pushed the start button and nothing, shit i forgot to plug the injector into the loom.
Try again, she starts up but there seems to be a fuel starvation problem so i pulled the tank off and took the fuel pump out of the tank. It was all clean as a whistle so not the tank but gave the pump and rest of it a good clean then buttoned it up, get the injector out and gave that another clean then back in.
So ignition on press the start button and it fired up better than the first time but still a fuel starvation issue, all i can think it to be is the injector!!
This bike is cursed, out of all the bikes i've owned i have never had such a problem child!!
The other thing is i look at the Enfield and the 996 and the bike that is meant to be unreliable isn't (996) and the one that's meant to be reliable just isn't.
The other thing is the Enfield just fights me all the time, a simple job on it turns into Homer's Odyssey, i thought the 900ie was a pain in the arse but it was a doddle compared to the Enfield!!
I'm pretty sure the problem is something silly and will have another look tomorrow, aaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!
