lol for the millionth time, valve clearances

I think this is the best video showing how to do it: YouTube - How to check valve timin on Honda 50 70 cc motors

here's a guide made by one of our members: http://www.miniriders.com.au/motor-tutorials/24965-how-set-valve-clearances-horizontal-engines.html

another good one: QingQi (Qlink) 200GY Illustrated Valve Adjustment - MyChinaMoto

after looking at all those guides you should have a pretty good idea of what you need to do, good luck

Have you tried running it with out the airfilter and see if its doing it? i remember i had this problm with my first bike, also had it with a yx140, could be crap fuel, even a bad carby, also as the above people said, could be valve clearance

Now sus mentions it, i have a 2t mini and the air filter was clogged in mud after a nice drift around a corner in soaking wet condition and i went slidey slidey and literally caked it and myself in mud. And bike started acting funny next day, wouldnt idle correctly, wouldnt give me full power. So could be that.

Just thought also, if it is air blockage, this would have a high fuel mix causing engine to stall as not enough air at full throttle. Check this maybe?
