I've just fitted a new RobinSubaru EHO35 to a Staton crankshift kit.
It has worked fantastically but now I've hit a problem.
Motor has only done about 6 hours - always started first time and ran beautifully.
Had gone about 3 miles and was heading up a hill on about 3/4 throttle.
Suddenly the motor cut totally, no coughing, didn't bog, just as if I had hit the kill switch.
Haven't been able to restart it since.
Took the kill switch out of the circuit.
Spark at plug looks good.
Plug does not seem to get wet with fuel even after numerous starting attempts.
I've stripped the carb and checked all the filters and jets - all seem brand new and clear (as they should)
Why might there be no fuel (obviously I've filled the tank and the priming button brings fuel to the carb)?
When the bike stopped it just didn't feel like fuel starvation.
Unfortunately returning the motor to America is not an option (I live in Scotland)
Could anybody help please?
