Hi, I just pulled a 79 xls 185 out of a barn. I am sure it has been sitting there for over 10 years. I am having a problems getting it started. I drained the fuel tank and added fresh fuel. Replaced the spark plug, changed the oil and thought it would start right up but it didnt. I pulled the CDI off and it had a large crack in it. I got a used one off of Ebay, put it on and the bike still wont start. Does anybody have any suggestions that I can try?
