I'm sooooo confused!!!

I have a first gen 83xvz1200 if I pull off the fuel line at the carbs I can see fuel pumping out but thats it just by turning the key it happens. If I put a little gas in the carbs then start it it runs till the fuel i poured in burns off. If I pour gas in carbs and leave the fuel line off while the engine burns off the fuel I poured I don't see any fuel coming out the fuel line from the fuel pump. Have no idea what to do. Seems it's not getting fuel somehow!! Thanks, Chop

WOW!!! sounds like I am gonna be busy. I reall like this bike and all the pieces are there. I am just not sure that I have the skills to get it in running shape. I can tell you that I am gonna give it the ole college try. There is new plugs and I have bought a new battery and drained the old fuel and replaced it. I am gonna get some seafoam and try that. You can believe that I am gonna need alot of help with this bike and it's good to have a few good guys like you in my corner. Thanks' Dave

I am so glad to have got some responses to my post. I have never heard of Seafoam is it difficult to find? At the petcock on the outside of the tank is that a switch for fuel reserve? I have taken off the fuel line at the "t" on the carbs and it was reds so I replaces it and fuel gets pushed to the carbs if I take it off and turn on the key. Is there some kinda fuel sensor unit that tells when the carbs have enough fuel?

I have a first gen and it won't stay running. If I put a few drops of gas in carbs and it will burn that off and wont stay running. I have ordered a fuel pump off ebay. It's like the fuel is getting cut off before it reaches the carbs. I pulled the fuel line off at the carb and turned the key and fuel is pumping but when it starts it quickly dies after the drops pf gas that i put in carbs burns off. uggg very fustrated
