    Troubleshooting harley
    My harley 1999 sportster sport runs great... problem is when I put it on reserve it dies out and is hard to restart... if I fill it up again... it runs excellent... I am thinking it has something to do with the carb float or one of the jets... any ideas? Much appreciated. Wpd
