Condensor??

[rodney3010]

Firstly, apologies for what may be seen as a sad case of ignorance on my part - I'll be the first to admit my enthusaism is greater than my knowledge!
I have a Spider 2000, X reg which when it last ran approx 12 months would run for a little while and then drop revs and die. I thought this sounded like a condensor problem. As the spring is coming I'm determined to get on the road and am slowly 'recommisioning'. To which end I started poking around yesterday but couldn't immediatetly find the condensor - I assumed it would be beneath the dizzy cap. Can anyone shed any light? Its a Bosch unit.

I have a T registered Spyder which has electronic ignition and therefore no condenser.  If yours has a black box mounted on thedrivers side suspension turret you also have electronic ignition.  I would look at the auto choke on the carb. which may point to your problem.

If left un-started for a while the automatic choke can foul up with crud from the cooling system, leading to erratic idling issues.

If you do have non-electronic ignition the condensor is usually on the off side inner wing next to the coil?

It has electronic ignition. Many thanks for the replies.
Will be tackling the autochoke this week.
