I just got a 85 gpz ninja 600r its liquid cooled 16 valve. It leaks some oil, and my question is should i flush the motor. its been sitting for a few months. i got it started and running. the carbs are gunked up. I put some carb cleaner in the gas tank to open it up a lil bit. But am i able to use carb cleaner that i can use on cars and am i able to flush the motor with the same stuff i can flush a car with?

Thanks
Ryan

 

Absolutly NOT> Carb cleaners for cars , if used on motorcycles will melt your rubber seals and your rubber intake manifolds.. Be careful what you flush your engine with. Make sure it's motorcycle approved. I used a carborator cleaner I bought from Automotive store and it melted my intake manifolds and made the carbs worse

 

the carb cleaner had motorcyle on it so do you think it wuld be ok for it. i havnt put it in yet. the flush whut would you recomend then

 

May sound crazy but I hear of people flushing out their engine with diesl fuel(as oil). Just crank it a couple of times but don't start it don't have the spark plugs in. They did that cause the bike was underwater.
