What causes high oil consumption in a KTM 350 SX-F?
If your KTM Motorcycle has high oil consumption, it could be due to the piston and cylinder being worn. Determine the mounting clearance of the piston/cylinder.
Why does my KTM 350 SX-F engine overheat?
If your KTM Motorcycle engine overheats, it could be due to several reasons. Check for coolant leaks and ensure the coolant level is correct. Insufficient airflow can also cause overheating, so switch off the engine when standing. Dirty radiator fins should be cleaned. Foam formation in the cooling system requires draining and refilling the coolant. Finally, inspect the radiator hose for bends and replace if necessary.
What to do if KTM 350 SX-F Motorcycle engine turns over but won't start?
If your KTM Motorcycle engine turns but doesn't start, check the following: ensure the fuel hose connection is properly joined. If the fuel screen in the fuel hose connection is clogged, replace it. Adjust the idle speed if it's not set correctly. Clean or replace oily or wet spark plugs, and adjust the plug gap to 0.8 mm (0.031 in) if it's too wide. Check the wiring harness for frayed short circuit cables and the electrical system for defects. Finally, a defect in the fuel injection system may require reading out the fault memory using the KTM diagnostics tool.
Why does my KTM 350 SX-F Motorcycle have no power?
If your KTM Motorcycle engine has too little power, start by cleaning the air filter and air filter box. If the fuel filter is very dirty, change it. A defect in the fuel injection system may require diagnosis with the KTM tool. Check the exhaust system for leaks or deformation, and replace the glass fiber yarn filling in the main silencer if needed. Lastly, make sure the valve clearance is properly adjusted.
What does it mean when the FI light is on KTM 350 SX-F?
If the FI warning lamp (MIL) lights up or flashes on your KTM Motorcycle, it indicates a defect in the fuel injection system. You should stop the motorcycle and identify the faulty part using the blink code. Also, check the cabling for damage and the electrical plug-in connections for corrosion and damage. If needed, read out the fault memory using the KTM diagnostics tool.
What to do if my KTM 350 SX-F Motorcycle has high oil consumption?
If your KTM Motorcycle is experiencing high oil consumption, check these: * Make sure the engine vent hose isn't bent; straighten it or replace if needed. * Verify that the engine oil level is not too high. * Consider that the engine oil might be too thin; in this case, change the oil and filter, and clean the oil screen. * Worn piston or cylinder; measure the piston/cylinder mounting clearance.
What to do if my KTM 350 SX-F Motorcycle engine doesn't turn over?
If your KTM Motorcycle engine doesn't turn when you press the starter, possible causes include an operating error (ensure you're following the correct start procedure), a discharged battery (charge, check voltage, quiescent current, and stator winding), a blown main fuse (replace it), a defective starter relay (check it), or a defective starter motor (check it).
What to do if my KTM 350 SX-F engine overheats?
If your KTM Motorcycle engine is overheating, consider the following: * Check for coolant leaks and ensure the coolant level is correct. * When stationary, switch off the engine to prevent insufficient airflow. * Clean any dirt from the radiator fins. * Address foam formation by draining and refilling the coolant. * Inspect and replace any bent radiator hoses.
What causes a KTM 350 SX-F Motorcycle engine to not speed up?
If the KTM Motorcycle engine does not speed up, it may be due to a defect in the fuel injection system. Read out the fault memory using the KTM diagnostics tool.
How to troubleshoot a KTM 350 SX-F Motorcycle engine that won't turn over when the starter button is pressed?
If the KTM Motorcycle engine does not turn when the starter button is pressed, it could be due to a discharged battery, so charge the battery. Another possibility is a blown main fuse, so change the main fuse.
