This is often due to a clogged fuel filter, blocked fuel line or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/signs-bad-fuel-pump\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">faulty fuel pump<\/a> (in EFI bikes).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Check if the fuel flows freely from the tank to the carburettor\/injector when the petcock is open.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean or replace the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/bad-fuel-filter-symptoms\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">clogged fuel filter<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inspect the fuel line for cracks, bends or blockages.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For EFI motorcycles, listen for the fuel pump priming sound when the ignition is turned on.

In older bikes, a clogged <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/carburettors-functions-types\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">carburettor<\/a> jet can restrict fuel flow, preventing a proper air\u2013fuel mixture.
