I would check the fuel itself. Make certain you have good gas. I went round and round on a Dodge van one time in Baja...spending about 10 days swapping in new and used stuff to make that thing run. Had to ride my bike to the nearest "town" for parts...an all day deal without any guarantee the part would actually be there on the promised day or be the proper part..Someone (beach front mechanic) suggested I drain all the fuel and start over....and sure enough...it started right up and ran fine. Gasoline in Mexico, at least, is often very poor, and now I know some of it is so bad your vehicle will not even run on it.. Don Hanson
