suzuki bandit running poor in wet conditions

[dayboy]

hello there i was wondering if anyone could help me!!
i have a suzuki bandit 600 1996 and in wet conditions runs very badly and is sometimes difficult to start but in dry conditions starts and runs fine. Also does anyone no how to sort out the heated carbs on them as mine dont work.
thank you.

lol sounds like some of your wirings has some breaks in it,the coils are probs getting wet so making it run bad

might be worth replacing them seeing as they could be 15 years old lol


get a haynes manual to check the carb heaters,probs have some procedure

the ht leads and caps on the outer two cylinders are vulnerable on these bikes, pull the caps off, and take them off the leads. may be a bit rotten and you may need to cut the leads back a bit to get fresh copper.

clean the contacts on the top of the caps. when you reassemble its worth packing the tops of the caps with vaseline, and once its all back together, spray the exposed bits with some ignition sealer. holts damp start is a good one.
