NC30 STARTING ISSUES, PLEASE HELP

[jamesgoodfella]

Hi all.
My nc30 recently has had starting issues,
I will start it fine leave it to idle for 3 mins, then it will die, i then go to start it and it wont start for a good 15 mins.
As it dies i go to rev it to save it but it conks out anyway.
Any ideas guys????

this has happen twice in a row so far

Sounds fuel related. Fuel tap, fuel breather...something isn't letting the float bowls refill after you start it.

Next time it does this, open the gas cap and listen for a rush of air going into the tank. If this happens, your fuel tank breather isn't working properly. If you can't hear air, then check the fuel tap and the vacuum line that goes to the no 3 cylinder intake manifold.

Yep will do, when i start it briefly then ride it, it wont miss a beat so its odd.
Ill keep an eye out

Dumb question: you have coolant in it, right?
