Bike won't start after using NOS fuel additive : Suzuki GSX-R Motorcycle Forums: Gixxer.com

**sti2gsxr** · 05-19-2009, 03:00 PM

My bike was running like crap on my way home from work so I stopped at a gas station to get some NOS. I poured in 2 bottles and rode it home. Well I don't think it helped because it ran even worse on the way home and now it won't start. Any ideas?

two bottles?? doesnt one bottle treat something like 12-14 gallons or more?

SO you just poured two bottles in your bike WITHOUT even reading the directions?? Why didn't you just piss in the tank....results would probably be the same and the piss is cheaper.

Fuckin '08's

Yeah, one of those bottles treats between 12 and 17 gallons of fuel. You put two bottles in a 3.x gallon tank = you're going to have to flush that.

unless you used the NOS energy drink instead of injector cleaner, then you've really done it...

Well I don't how how MORE octane can hurt anything....

all those gimmicky additives are the suck, you should have searched the forums because I'm sure someone else has had your exact same problem, and probably fixed it the right way.......

If you believe that shit is really octane in a bottle, then you're going to be disappointed.....even if it did work as advertised, what made you think a higher octane fuel would help? Was the motor pinging?

That shit is just a marketing gimmick, and a huge waste of money.
Put a NOS sticker on a bag of dog shit, and people will buy it.

You'd think that....but you'd be wrong.
Might I refer you to the kickstand sensor switch thread?

Shoulda put in Red Bull instead - it would have given you wings!

Yep, I had the same problem and ran 1 bottle of injector cleaner over 3 tanks. Running much better now.

Drain the tank, put in fresh gas & change your spark plugs.

I can't think of a reason more octane would hurt the motor. If anything it should clean it out

It wasn't an energy drink. The bottles were blue and looked just like a NOS bottle
