so once u roll start it anh it warm,s up does it kickstart easy then once its warm????

 

[edzy]

sounds like air mixture
have you fiddeled with anything resently?
done any grinding mods?

 

[corey58]

lol sound like the valves are overdue

 

[MITTZ]

are you using the choke when its cold? lol

 

[pbk]

no choke isint on nd it does kick heaps easy once its warm but it takes a bit of effort to get it warm nd no i havent done any mods but yes i have been fiddling wi fthe fuel air screws

 

[pbk]

and wat do u mean by valves overdue, tappets need re-adjusting?

 

[edzy]

ok, turn your air/mixture screw all the way in. then 2 and a half turns out.
then it should start and only minor tuning ill be needed

 

[pbk]

ok thanks for that

Get the valves checked.

 

[red_demon24]

turn ur choke on when u start it and check ur idle screw that might be why its not idleing.

 

[pbk]

is the idle screw the fuel/air mixture screws?

 

[PITBIKEMAFIA]

no its the one with the spring , should be around or near the air/fuel

also like others have said you probably need to redo your valve clearances, i think they are .3 thou inlet and .4 thou exaust? someone correct me if im wrong.

thanks,
matty
