It is not a major concern, I would typically add some Amsoil PI ( http://www.amsoil.com/storefront/api.aspx ) or equivalent fuel injector cleaner ... then I would notice normal start-up and better response.

Sometimes I have to give just a touch of throttle but I think it is because I messed with the fuel mixture screws. I am going to take it in so they can adjust it with the equipment that is required. But I wouldn't worry about it though. I would take Bill's advice about the cleaner. I do that every few months just in case.

Hi Eldon,

It almost sounds like your Fuel Pressure Regulator might be acting up. Best to test fuel pressure in your FI system. Darn things do not last forever.

Check to make certain you are using the correct plugs - by correct I mean the plugs should fall within the correct operating temperature range. Verify that the gap is set properly.

PostSubject: Let Mr Honda Start you scoot   starting silverwing I_icon_minitimeSun Jun 20, 2010 4:42 pm

When I asked the dealer about starting he said "let Mr. Honda start your Scoot". If the scooter doesn't start there is something wrong. don't give it gas, make sure it in a stating configuration.He say it has been engineered to start without difficulty.

Hi Eldon,

43 PSI at idle (1300 rpm) is right on the mark. There is a service check bolt that is removed (carefully) and the fuel pressure gauge gets installed where the bolt is removed. There are alot of cautions when working on high pressure fuel systems.

This is what gets me, the service check bolt is located on the fuel tank and you will need to remove the center cover to access it.

OK, here we go.

1. Remove the seat

2. Remove the lamp/bulb out of the cargo area.

3. Remove maintenance lid.

4. Remove the floor skirts.

5. Remove passengers foot steps.

Then....

6. Remove the screws and washer bolts on the floor boards and remove the floor boards.

That was easy!

What Happens is the electric fuel pump causes pressure much higher then 43 psi in front of the PR (Pressure Regulator). The PR lets alot of that un-used pressured fuel to return to the fuel tank.

If your scooters PR is letting to much pressure build up, it will cause to much gas to spray out of the fuel injectors, causing the motor to run to rich.

Testing PR is really a good thing to do on an earlier scooter. It also checks your fuel pump.

I just did a look see on Ebay and guess what I found! Honda Fuel Pressure Gauge 07406-004000A.

This is the gauge that honda uses on the Silverwing also. You will need to bid on it, but don't until it's almost done. It has no bids at this time and is at $5.00 with $9.00 shipping. One hell of a deal if you can score this for $5.00 starting silverwing Affraid

You can always call the Honda Dealership near you. Knowing the price of Original HONDA tools, (est) would be around $45.00-$60.00 Now that is a guess. So go find out if you are really interested.

Welcome to the SWing forum.

I thought I remember reading someone doing something like this ... I thought it ended being a relay.

Do you have a Service Manual??

Hi, Did you check the MAIN fuse under the left side cover? This fuse is not with the rest of the fuses. People just keep forgeting about that one.
