I have this 95 elec glide standard with a cv carb.
the problem is when I start this thing and it warms up I push in the enrichener the bike stumbles and dies.
If you tweak the throttle you can keep it running, it will run for about twenty seconds and then its like it runs out of fuel and cuts out.
the bike is pretty much a stock police standard e-glide it has some leaks here and there.
the cv carb is jetted for the drag pipes i have.
I dont know if its in the idle cuircit or vacume leak.
any help would be appreaciated.

 

It sounds like your carb is gummed up.

 

I agree clean out the LS jet or replace What # LS are you running Check the vacuum hose plus the intake seals

 

How long has it been doing this? Is this something that has been happening over time getting worse and worse? Taking longer to completely warm up so you can push enrichener in and go? If yes than the carb probably needs a cleaning as well as air filter.

 

yup, pull the carb apart and give it a good cleaning, a carb kit can be obtained thru jireh cycles for about 10 bux. chad.

 

thanks I'll pull it and clean it...lol
It started last sept and has been sitting since fired it up today and this stuff started.
It warms up fine with the enrichiner, but when i push it in it runs for about 20sec then falls off and lumps real bad.
tweak the trottle and it runs again for a little while then back to lumping.
I'll go through the carb, it needs it.
thanks.

 

Check float level, too.

 

could be bad gas as well, you use Stabil? thats a long time sitting

 

Also, You might wanna check your intake seals for leaks by spraying a few shots of contact/carb cleaner from the carb side directly onto the front and rear intakes after you warm it up and it's being held at idle...

 

I went ahead and rebuilt the carb and glued in the intake with hylomar.
fired the bike up ready to go and the same crap, warms up and stumbles.

started to go through the manifold, the carb gasket looked real good.

I decided to put on a vac pump and check the VOES.
the voes wont hold a vaccum, i can get it to reach 5inches of mercury but it wont stay.
also found the vaccum line to the petcock had a hole.
so my question is this shouldnt the voes hold vaccum, not leak it off.
It will build up to 5-6 inches but then dropes off??????

thanks everyone for the help!
I do appreciate it...
