What Causes a Motorcycle Throttle to Not Turn?
1 Answers
Motorcycle throttle not turning is due to the throttle cable being frozen. Low winter temperatures are unfavorable for engine startup, and without proper measures, it can accelerate engine wear. Use low-viscosity grade engine oil: As temperatures drop, it is recommended to use low-viscosity grade engine oil to meet the engine's viscosity requirements in winter and extend the engine's service life. Increase electrolyte concentration: For motorcycles equipped with an electric start system, if a non-maintenance-free battery is used, the concentration of the battery electrolyte should be appropriately increased. This enhances the battery's activity at low temperatures, reduces the possibility of sulfation, and requires attention to supplemental charging. When using the electric start, if it fails to start on the first attempt, wait 10 to 15 seconds before trying again, and each starting attempt should not exceed 5 seconds.
