I will check that to. The choke needle still is not moving when the ignition is switched on or if the Ped is started so maybe there isn't any power going to the choke?

Yeah that's all the right way around had that apart a few times and checked diagrams so the carb is put together properly. I've ordered a new carb for it should be here on Tues so I will get it fitted and hopefully that will sort the problem!

If its needed I will fit a switch but hopefully the new carb will sort it, had the old one wired up to a battery and it doesn't extend or retract so it must be permanently on.

I will be back on Tues and give the verdict.

 Thanks again for all the advice guys keep up the good work!

Redneck work haha! I found the problem its the auto choke the needle won't move on it at all when I plug it into battery, it worked fine with my finger over the hole of the choke so either gonna get a new choke or just stick something on it! At least I found what's wrong with the bloody thing took me long enough! So I'm guessing at full throttle it will be getting way to much gas and flooding the engine? If the choke is staying permanently on.

Right I've had it in pieces fitted a new plug and the only thing I can find wrong is the auto choke its doing nothing when the ignition is turned on, the needle doesn't extend or retract and when I take the choke out and plug the hole for the choke with a bit of cloth it seems to work fine. It even starts better and ticks over better without the choke!

Well that success was short lived! It just turned itself off and now won't start will turn over and run for 5secs, dammit :( getting a mechanic to check it over later though so hopefully he will know more.

Right just had a good half hour of tinkering and she lives once again! :) doesn't seem to be bogging down at all when I've ridden it and been riding for at least 30mins! Its now just sat purring away nicely :) can't understand this Ped it only works when it wants it seems!

I might give that a go when the weather is warm enough.

But at the moment it won't even start it will turnover and there is a decent spark and fuel going into carb and engine but won't start maybe due to it being stood for a few months I really don't know and I'm now starting to loose my rag with it!  >:(

Any help would be much appreciated :)

I have used carb cleaner for the jets and a bristle from paintbrush and a thin wire to clean the jets, but never tried one of these kits looks like I'll have to ask Santa for one haha ;) I hope it just needs cleaning a little better, if not I'm still gonna be stuck at a brickwall :/

yes ive checked most of those things there are no cracks in any pipes or wires just a slight bit of corrosion but only to the surface of the pipes so wont affect the performance of the parts, im really stuck on what it could be a lot of headscratching might have to invest in a new carb £36 :( a lot of money just to get it working i just want a cheap one what will get it running until Jan when the insurance runs out then it will be going to a new home i reckon as im getting a car as soon as i get my test passed so wont have time for her anymore, 2 years of decent riding and now it gives up ahh well. been to some nice places (4 hours there and the same back) bit painful but was well worth the ride haha :)

all the carb and jets are clean as a whistle, the pin on the diaphragm is fine and moves smoothly the diaphragm is also fine no holes or cracks, but the fuel mixture screw seems very easy to screw and unscrew, im sure when i set the mixture last time it was a lot tighter than that, also i can feel the spring inside and can also hear it moving ???

A new carb for £6?! Where did you find this I can only find ones on eBay at around £36 :( this must be the problem with mine the idle is mega high then it just drops and dies and will only start with a little throttle then as soon as I go for any throttle again the revs just drop.

Nope defiantly not the fuel mix I has it running and had a great 10min ride until I had to take my hand off throttle for junctions then it just bogs down and eventually dies yet again! Tried adjusting the fuel mix screw several times I even almost completely unscrewed the bastard but it still has the same problem :( and the idle is mega high its like I'm giving it at least 1/4 throttle even though I'm not touching it, then as soon as I try to even slightly rev it the engine almost stalls its doing the total opposite of what it should when you open the throttle up revs drop instead of pick up so confused?! ???  I wish I knew what the hell is going on inside that engine! :S looks like a new carb I guess :(

Hopefully it will just need loosening a bit I think I screwed it in too far when setting the carb up might just need an extra turn or so and then it should begetting the right fuel mix as it does seem to be running a little lean :-\ and if that doesn't work then looks like a new carb will be ordered :)
