      ok I tried it with the tank open and still no luck I got it started using the throtle the other day but as soon as I let go it just died. I do not know anything about motorcycles there is also a plug sticking out of the left side right under the tank and I have no clue what goes there.

        Fuel filter perhaps ? Is it running too rich ?

          Can you post a pic of the plug?

          As for starting it with the throttle...

          Starting the TL on the left bar there is a little lever on the inside. Commonly thought of as a choke. Its not a choke but it is a fast idle lever. it holds the butterfly in the throttle bodies open very slightly to aid starting, just like holding the throttle open with the twist grip.

          Open this fully when attempting to start the bike from cold. When the bike is up to operating temp 80degC (about 176F) there is no need for the fast idle.

              Its probably the intake air temp sensor and that can couse a shut down . it goes on the bottom of the air box . Is it green ?

              It never ceases to amaze why people ask for advice then when I give it they either ignore it or argue against it.
              But then I don't know all that much about TL's

              wwjd.......what would jimmy do.
