About 1982 XJ650J

[Del Tysdal]

For the 'fun' of it I bought this bike. However, #3 cylinder does not heat up for some bit of time. I imagine it is not firing. or gas is not getting there when it should. When the engine gets 'hot' (2 or 3 minutes) then it fires easily. Runs strong after that time. What can I check? Thanks. I just got my XS 1100E out and it is running find. Had a replaced engine put in then took all the plastic off and repainted it all. Also put on a vinyl saeat cover in gold to match the stripes. Where can I post a picture?
