Hi there! I am experiencing this trouble for almost 3 months now, everytime I start the engine, it will run only for about 500 meters and suddenly it will stop. I notice it even the engine is hot or cold. I already change the CDI, the fuel pump and the fuel filter. I already drained the gas tank still the problem occurs. Can you diagnose what could be trouble behind this? Thanks.

Get some starting fluid and when this occurs, spray some fluid in the throttle body. If engine runs a few seconds, then a fuel issue (fuse/relay). If it does not run, then ignition (ignition module, coil).
