ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

    ignition problems

    i was wondering if you guys ever had ignition problems with your CB7's. About a year ago, I brought my CB into the dealership b/c supposedly, they key hole (ignition switch) on the steering column was messed up. Since then, every once and a while, my CB wouldn't start for a while and even if it does, it would die out, like stall making me have to rev the engine to keep it alive. Do you guys have any ideas of whats up?? Any suggestions on how to solve it and how much it'd cost??

    THank you guys

        If you can rev to keep the engine alive, I doubt it's a problem with the ignition switch. It may be time for a tune-up. I would check the condition of the distributor cap and rotor. Worn ignition components can also cause a hard-startup condition as well as a bad main relay.

          and then if it persists see if the work the dealership is under warranty still and take it back.
