Hi All...
Ok..I just bought a Grubee GT5 (2011) with what I can FIGURE is a V2 CNS Carb. Now here's the problem...
The adverts all say "100-150 mpg"...ok...I bought this and put it all together (as per instructions) but I get about 25 miles per tank full The motor sounds like it's running "labored" (with an occassional burst of power) Smokes like an S.O.B. I have looked everywhere for adjustment of this carb to lean it out...even took the needle out (there ARE NO adjustments for the E ring)...and dont know what to do. I have read that the CNS carb is **** and to use the NT. Also...I am using the "instructions" recommended oil/fuel mix at 18 to 1..I replaced the plug with a new NGK...and it is black and oily...could this be the problem?
Can someone PLEASE help me work this out? I ride this bike to work but if this is the mileage Im going to get from this goose, I might as well go back to driving my car. HELP?
