my 80 wont start :(

[shaun]

my mate was riding my old peewee 80 and it started to lose power and cut out, i had a look at the oil that goes under the seat and it had none in there.... i drained the rest of the fuel out and put some new oil in it and it still would not start...

i cleaned the spark plug and poored some fuel down the carbi and where the spark plug goes in and it still would not fire up???? can any one tell me how to fix this ?

got any compression? might of burnt the rings out by runnin it with no oil...

ok thaks for that and there is very little compression

reckon that could be ya problem dude. 3 things to make an engine go, spark, fuel and compression.. take one of em away and its all kaput.

ive seen diesels run without a spark
also carby cars with avgas!

as for the 80, rebuild time!

lol, shaddup about the diesels

just thinking of me RC car as well

rebuildies! stupid 2 smokes... fouled plug? new plug? neighbour had major issues with one that was merely the plug...

run premix fuel...25:1 and if it smokes too much(if it starts again) back that off to 30:1 etc....
