02 225

Hi All
I have an 02 ficht 225 and have a question on air silencer. At the lower corner of box is a nipple with hose attached, however it seems as though the nipple is blocked hard. Should this be the case or should it be open
Thanks
Mike

No it's not an open nipple.

Motor seems to be having some trouble on cold start i.e. stalls and has to be restarted 5 or 6 times. Afterwords no issues of this sort when it is run for a little while. Also can detect very slight miss when cruising at around 4k rpm. Plugs are new and gapped and indexed properly, backpressure sensor decarbed and clean, new fuel filter. Any thoghts what to look for would be appreciated
Thanks
Mike

Have your dealer check the serial number for any bulletins to see if all the upataes have been done on it.
