I bought the 2-cycle engine brand new and put it on a brand new bicycle. It looks good. The fuel is properly mixed. I checked for vacuum leaks by spraying starting fluid around the manifold and such places that might suck air. It's nice and tight, any vacuum leak the engine would speed up and it didn't. That's good.
Here's what I'm dealing with, the problem is that the engine won't speed all the way up. Since it isn't up to speed it also isn't up to power. Everything is brand new, not even through the first full tank of fuel yet (16:1 break in ratio). It will barely pull me on a level surface, any kind of grade is out of the question.
I'm open to any and all suggestions, please help.
