My HD 05 883 wont stay on, it runs fine with choke on but
It sounds like the idle jet is clogged, if the choke is on it will continue to run however (very rich).black unspent fuel which will blacken the spark plugs and eventually foul out...take the carburator off and take it apart....there is an idle jet, blow thru it,or run a very fine wire thru it, you should be able to hold it up to the light and see the light.....same thing for the main jet...make sure the float bowl is cleaned out and install a new fuel filter.....check the gas tank for any rust..........if there is rust in the tank.....it must be cleaned and a tank sealer must be applied......there are several kits available..
