So i just bought a xs400 for a friend of a friend. Its my first bike and I dident know what to look at or cheack for other than some basic things i was told to look for, anyway i took a gamble and bought it. the guy droped it off and I started itup and it was runing for a little wile and then whould idle down and shut off. Soi messed with the idle screw and then it wouldent start at all no matter how high or low I turned it. So i charged the battery and got it running and adjusted the screw. I get home from work go to see if it willstart upand it does for a bit then idles down and shuts off. I keep trying and then let it sit so the engine doesent flood. I try it again and same thing starts up and idles down and out. Leave it for an hour come back and wont start. Any ideas on whats going on?
