Hello, just joined this site!
I got a 125cc lifan engine with about 15 hours on it, that started sputter and run bad a few days ago..
I can't find out what it is, it idles great, no problem at all. In all gears it will sputter and run really bad, with no bottom end power at all! Runs like crap all of a sudden...
I've changed the air filter, inspected the outside of the carb all the way to the motor, no air leaks either. Tried to see if there's something not right with the wiring harness but everything seems alright...
Today, when I fired it up, it started with no problem at all, ran without problems for 15 minutes. then I turned it off and fired it back up, suddenly a lot of sputtering and ****. Then, I tried to ride it just to see, sometimes the sputter and powerloss would dissapear and come back...it's very weird.
Could this be carb that got crap in it?
Something wrong with the CDI, or coil?
Valves out of adjustment? I've never checked them.
Water in the fuel tank?, poored in new fresh fuel today, a few litres so it should be alright..
Thanks for any answers, hope to get this solved out pretty quick!
