thanks for your support
8 days over and my bike is still with them

If your engine dies after ripping the bike, have your tried ripping with the tank lid open?[/QUOTE]

means i have to drive the bike while lid is open

Even incorrect tappet settings (too tight tappet) can cause this too. I had to buy feeler gauge and set the tappets myself to remove this problem! All mechs here set tappet by "feel"!

what is tappet

**abhijeet080808** · 10-05-2009, 11:49 PM

Tappet setting means adjusting valve clearances. The lash between the valves and the cam shaft is adjusted by adjusting the tappet. If it is not proper, problems can occur. Loose tappets will mean dull top end performance (above 5k). Too tight tappet will mean engine stalling at lower rpm and lack of power across the rev band. So, it should be set properly.

Yes, ride the bike, with tank lid unlocked, not fully open, and if the bike still dies.

rest of two solved by your help..thanks

again thankyou very much for all your help.......

Hi Mayank,
I also have 220 DTS-FI 2008 model. I also faced the same problems of bike stopping. My bikes fuel filter was clogged with black mud, probably due to bad fuel. I stopped fueling my bike from my regular petrol pump. But the problem persisted even then. I had eventually replace my fuel injector. The bike is running now but still there's a minor problem. Once in a while my bike's speed suddenly drops as if it went out of fuel. No one is able to understand the problem. I've already spent 5k on my bike's recent problem. No Idea how many more I'll spend to get the problem resolved. But I think DTS-FI is problematic and probably that could be the reason Bajaj discontinued it's production. If any one has solution for this problem then please share it with me.
