Hello all. I bought the 7g ghost racer kit about two months ago and its been giving me problems from day one. After installing the kit on my beach cruiser, the first thing I noticed was that the engine would not start with the choke on as shown here.
Soo, I said what the hell, and started running bike as shown here with the choke off(skip to 3:05)
To my surprise it started up just fine, ran what seemed to be ok, and would turn off when using the kill switch. I'm in the clear right? WRONG.
Within the first week of riding it, the engine would die after coming to a dead stop and attempting to give it gas. I would have to start it up again with the choke off until it would spontaneously die on me after stopping again.
Now, the the engine only runs about a block until it dies when I try to give it gas. As soon as I twist the throttle, its shuts down. I'm very frustrated trying to figure this out.
I've cleaned the carb three times, checked my fuel line, filled up the gas tank but it just dies after trying to give it gas on my first stop.
ANY SUGGESTIONS??? NEW CARB? ADJUST THE VALVES?NEW ENGINE? AM I COMPLETELY SCREWED?
Just wanted to add that I changed the oil once but did not use 10-30 oil with detergent and additives.
COULD THIS HAVE RUINED THE MOTOR?
Any advice,help, or suggestions will be GREATLY appreciated.
I'm bummed out. I wanted to take this to school and get all the chicks
