broken down!

[HERPER]

haha thanks all.. still havent gotten around to trouble shooting it yet.. but i agree its flodding to some degree or not sparking..

its definatly bogging down and soaking wet. and spewing out smoke. so not fuel valves and im always on top of shutting of the valve. its either the plug or the carb.. i will be sure to check both

I would think that the crankcase is partially flooded. It happened on a dirtbike I had a while back and had to turn it upside down/sideways to drain the gas from the crank lol. Same symptoms though. I suppose you could "dry cycle" the engine without the plug to see if it shoots straight gas out of the plug hole.

I had the same problem

Hey, it sounds like I had the very same problem you described. I trust you have a solution by now.

My problem turned out to be that the wires going to the magnito either had a loose connection or they were grounding out on the frame. I pulled the connection out from the frame a bit and made sure it wasn't loose and it fired right up.

I hope this is helpful..
