Bought a used 86 XT600, been sitting in a barn 4 years, cleaned carburetor of deposit(Fuel was not drained)cleaned fuel screen in tank, replaced intake boots, still have a hard time starting, sometimes 20 kicks, if I don´t keep the throttle up for first 5 minutes bike will die at idle. sometimes under full load bike dies for just seconds. Any tips, have I missed something ?
