Carburetor

[Deleted member 12676]

that pop is due to the lack of a good seal between the head and the cylinder.
check the carb to see if has a lever actuated choke. Maybe that moved when you hit the pothole.

It does have a lever choke

I've heard the woodruff key could be a problem on these 2 strokes.can you tell me where the woodruff key is on the flying horse setups?

There are 4 of them. one for the rotor in the mag, one on the clutch side for the PTO take off gear which I had a problem with it but it still was running then one for the clutch and one on the chain sprocket. Have you take the rotor off for any reason?

I haven't taken the rotor off

Cool the reason I asked is the rotor can go on two ways and only one is correct. If you do take it off mark the outside side so you do not put it on the wrong way. Good luck.

If you have a tank valve on the fuel tank it may have gotten debris in it from hitting the pothole. It may be worth your while to check the tank valve.

Nooby question.where is the rotor exactly

This is why I always line my tanks before using. This way they do not rust and should not get trash in them.

Your rotor is part of the mag. It is under the front left cover with the 4 screws. It is the round part that turns and has magnets in it. If by chance the key sheared could cause problems as the timing would be off.
