Hi there. I'm a 3 year Seca owner and have followed your site and found your information invaluable! I've never posted because i've always been able to find the answers on this forum but....The problem is after a long cold winter here in Montana, I was never able to get my garage warm enough to start my bike. When I did, it acted as if it were out of gas. Plugs were dry, I checked to make sure it has spark, fuel would flow freely on prime from tank. I tested the fuel pump and it kind of spit fuel out the outlet. I then hooked it all back up and put about a teaspoon of fuel in the cylinders and it will only run few seconds...should the fuel pump do more than just spit gas a 1/2"? I put sta bil in it in september before i quit running it,but could the gas be bad? i was afraid to use starting fluid because someone told me it could hurt it..Thoughts? Thanks guys
