ok i work on old bikes it a hobbie do you have a new battery you have yo take the tank off and flush it out take some b-bs from a bb gun and into the tank and throw some new gas in there shake it and let it sit 48 hours and every hour per say shake it then you want to throw some carb cleaner into the carbs and there should be a valve to drain well after you fill the hole carbs with carb cleaner shake the bike for a week let your bike sit with that carb cleaner and shake the bike all those rubber seals go back to normal and after you cleaned the tank out and you cleaned the carbs let your carbs drain all that c**p out then you hook your tank back up and you let fresh gas in and you dont see any gass comming out of that valve you have problem you have to re bilt your carb but if you have gas flowing threw cap it then wipe off the gas from your engine and then its time to fire it up if it run for a min and dies then you have a lttile more bugs to work out and if runs for a hour and then runs at a idal i told you so i wish you luck you have a good bike there your friend pete and ps if you need any more help let me know [e-mail]
