  3. R3 Touring ran fine now it won't start

    thx for checking, Bob. just got the fuel filter and am waiting on the fuel sender assembly. the fuel gauge doesn't work and thought I'd swap in a new float while I had the tank off. Its supposed to be in next week. While I wait, I have a mower deck that needs some welding (ran over a rock) so...

    thanks all for the advice. I've taken the tank off and drained out what may be old fuel. I plan on new fuel and some Seafoam cleaner at first startup (hopefully first start up). Also switching out the fuel filter.. I'll also check the roll over valve as Georg suggested. I'm pulling the spark...

    thx much. I actually ordered a new fuel filter a couple days ago ( my wife's suggestion. she thinks check the simplest first also). Never thought about draining the fuel. But, you're right..start with the simplest and move from there. When the filter gets here, I'll drain the gas and change out...
  11. R3 Touring ran fine now it won't start

    thx, IDK. I never thought of that. The tank likely has old fuel in it given the previous owner stopped riding it due to health reasons.

    just bought this 6800 total miles 2008 model in July. I trailered it home from Delaware and took it directly to the local Triumph dealer for a new front tire and inspection. Finally got it back this week and it started running rough on the 10 mile drive home. I did pull into a Sheetz for gas...
