i will check the carby, i cleaned the carby as best i could (took everything apart that can be screwed out), i used brake cleaner as i couldn't find anything else, and i know how good that stuff is at cleaning things. It doesn't look like i can adjust the float level, but i will check if...

i've adjusted the clearance's (quite poorly) and it's way better, can pull upp hills and it idle's so it's definently better, but i didn't have any .003 so i had to take the .004 and .006 option. Do you think there would be more performance from the .003 and .004 option? I still have to adjust...

I can't see any damage on the stator, it looks clean, and i've tested the spark and it's better now, nice blue powerful spark. I think valve clearance is next on the to do list, what do you think?

looks like my multimeter doesn't work, so i think i'll just pop the cover of and have a look, maybe it's visible.

i will try this and write back. P.S. i've got a 6 pin plug just like the 5 pin one only with the top middle one there.

i changed the coil, but there's no change, but that got me thinking, could it be the stator that's fried? the battery doesn't seem to charge now that i think about it, and the lights are getting dimmer than before, i think i will pull the cover off and have a look. but the bike now idles ok.

i have already cleaned the carby, but i will try once more with a wire this time. I'm also on my way to pick up a new coil so i'll be putting that in later. And yes i have got a multi meter. I'll write back when i've done this.

i will clean the jets and switch the wires, hope that works :)

i just took the spark plug out to see what colour it was, and i then checked the spark because i had it out anyway, and the spark was very very weak, i almost couldn't see it, and i checked some other plugs as well so it's not the plug. The guy i spoke to at the dealer also said that he had a...

i've put new gasket's on, the carby was warped pretty badly, but i fixed it, but the problem is still there. I'm going down to the local bike shop, to buy new bulbs and ask them if they've had similar problems before, and if they've got valve adjustment tools and tips. I'm thinking it must be...

Thanks, i will take a good look at the carby, and also replace the gasket between the engine and inlet, because i have a new one anyway. I should have some gasket paper so i'll put that between the carby and the inlet as well.

Also, here's a video to hopefully show the issue i'm having (sorry for the bad audio quality) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRYqKGJ-1mc

Shouldn't the o-ring keep the carby sealed? if the carb is moved farther back it wont fit because the electric start is in the way :( you said spacer, does the inlet need a specific length in order to run properly?

i havent checked the filter, but i've checked to see if there's coming fuel from the tank, i will go check for good measure. The carburetor doesn't have a plastic bit in the middle, just an o-ring, i haven't put oil on the filter, I'll have to go buy some first, i will check for leaks as well...

Hello, I've got a Kinroad XT50GY, it's a road bike, but the engine is from a Chinese pit bike, it's a 50cc horizontal engine with 4 gears and a manual clutch. P.S. I'm not good with 4 strokes, this is my first 4 stroke bike, and i wan't to learn how to diagnose and fix 4 strokes as well. And i'm...
