Bike running horribly
Guest
I got a motorized bicycle off eBay a couple months ago and ever since then I've had nothing but trouble and problem after problem with it so it's become my hobby pretty much repairing it to the point it's almost solid and running the way it's supposed to but a couple days ago I went to get on it the next morning and the performance was horrible barely any throttle response and my speed is usually around 24 mph or so I think although I was told the top speed would be around 40 mph but yeah now when I ride it it goes very slow like maybe 7 or 8 mph at full throttle and won't accelerate any further the carb floods or something when I ride it won't idle the choke vibrates up very easily making it even slower until I notice and flip it back down where it regains a tiny bit of power I might have tighten that up hills are awful the engine pretty much dies if I stop pedaling up a hill I've checked a bunch of things but I'm at a loss now I've Opened the inside of the carb and inspected it for dirt damage being stuck things like that and it looks perfectly clean in there any more information id be glad to share I just want the performance fixed because it's my only transportation and it's eating through gas this way
