i have just bought a used 1982 yamaha seca xj750. i am having trouble
with it starting and stalling. %50 of the time it starts first time
out but after riding for a time and i’ll turn off, i’ll return 10 mins
later it wont start. I wait 30 mins and then it will start again. and
as well the idel is ether fast or to slow. i set idel just right but
after riding for just 5 mins or less the idel jumps way high. if i set
the idel low and try and use the throttle to keep it up when i come to
a stop it will sometimes stall out. in turn then it may not start. i
have heard that the intake manifolds may be leeking some and to
replace them.any other ideas for me THANK YOU!!.
why would the 30 min wait time have anything to do with it starting
again?? but it does. i have replaced the battaery thinking at first it
seemed that this my be it. it’s not. also i can go out and start it
10,20 times today and it would start first time. it’s just when i take
it for a 10 or min ride or more that these things begain.
oh second ?? maybe, I have the two - 2 into 1 pipes and feel that
maybe i should replace the pipes being old and some rust and all. were
might i find these and is the 4 into 1 pipes better or worse.

Wrong. Stabilizer is mixed with fresh fuel BEFORE storing the bike to
prevent the fuel from turning to varnish. After the fact, all you can do is
clean up the mess. As Ben Franklin once said, "A pennies worth of prevention
is worth a pound of cure."
