Engine Trouble wont idle

[rj1967]

I did find out one thing..if you flood the motor it takes an act of God to get them unflooded shy of taking off muffler and letting it drain out.

Can anyone tell me a quick way to unflood this 80cc stubborn *****? Please?

take out plug & pedal it a bunch - when you get it to a point at which it will start, just keep it running for a few minutes till it drys itself out inside

Ill give it a shot. If that dont work anyone got a shotgun? That'll fix it right up.

What gas : oil ratio are you running?
I find 25:1 for a gallon break-in, and then 32:1 synthetic from then on.

 

[rj1967]

About 6oz to every gallon. However that measures out. been broke in awhile.

Way too much oil, run 4oz, 1/2 cup.

I tell people to run 32:1 because any less is too scary for a lot of people but I run 50:1 with no problems. the 16:1 suggestion is just for people who don't want to rejet.
