solved the backfiring (popping) issue...

Old Evo.,,,, how you doing?

I'm doing fine but my riding is done for the season. My bike won't start. I think it's the starter relay, and I'm planning on swapping out the turn signal relay to test it out. Just have to figure out where they are located before I tear into the bike.

They are either between the tanks of somewhere close to the battery I think. My service and parts manaul have been of little use in locating them.

I thought we said to spray a little WD40 or starter fluid around the head and intake to check for a leak... Must have been another thread....

I use carb cleaner......then if I have to change the seals, the "Gunk" is gone all ready
