OK, so ive done all the research and searched the threads and tried everything but now it started and ran for 2 minutes and died again.
What ive done so far:-
2 painstaking days to meticulously mount the motor so it is as solid as a rock'
Castrol TTS 20:1 fresh 98 grade fuel
in line filter
o-ring seal in carby
carby cleaned (about 5 times now)
All nuts & bolts double tripple checked for torque
NGK b6hs plug inserted today and she fired immediately, i pulled in the clutch to try and keep the revs going, it stalled.
Back to the garage, another new plug (thought it may be destroying plugs, shortened the plug wire and cleaned the carb again
fired after nearly 199 heart rate and I rode it for 5 minutes dodging all sorts of cars and pedestrians to avoid stopping.
This thing was laboring, it is spluttering and doesn't want to go (air filter is off at present, tried covering it a little whilst riding but that made it worse.
So i'm ready to ditch this pos soon, I just cant be stuffed wasting all this time on it when my two perfectly good motorcrossers in the shed could be doing with my TLC, but its my sons bike and he's aching to ride it.
So all up its run 4 times:-
3 minutes
3 minutes
20 seconds
5 minutes
Ive also used 1/2 can of quick start which appears to do nothing really, the floats are set fine, needle & seat clean, clip set 3 from top, so everything is set for it to run, so why isnt it?
Please help if you can?
