agility 50 problems :(

I just use carburetor spray/cleaner..one step....no soaking and blowing...

Yeah, that's the way - the dirt solves, stays in your carb, the solvent quickly vapourizes, and the dirt will stay there until the next time you take the carb apart...  

(Not to mention that it doesn't have any effect on solid stuff that doesn't solve, like sand and rust particles...)

Noooo... not that way, I meant, I disassemble the carb,  spray each part with carb clean, and done... no more soaking and waiting and blowing.... 

If some soaking is needed, I use gasoline...

I didn't say anything about waiting....  
I meant "to soak" as in "make soaking wet", not as in "soak overnight"...

oh...

Right so I've stripped the carb cleaned it all with white spirit soaked the jets in it for about 10mins there was a tiny bit of dirt barely any from the carb, also cleaned air filter box and air filter, 20 kicks later we have life but it seems to be still almost dieing when I touch the throttle not been for a ride yet will do later, the jet is a 79 I guess that's the right one? If this hasn't sorted it I'm unplugging the choke and will see if that's the culprit.

#79!!! jeez you need a bigger jet in there man, your running MEGA lean. you need a #82/84 at least to get her running properly.

Its dead again argh took it for a ride was working for 15mins then that was it can't seem to get it going it seemed to be fine before as its had that carb in since Jan

[streido]

The fact its fine at 1st tends me to think its either a fuel shortage problem due to the bowl being empty, a blockage in the fuel line or filter or jets or an air blockage somewhere. Or an electrical fault or something is overheating and/or somethings warping?

[matthew_addison]

I wish it was simple as a blocked pipe I've had the fuel pipes air pipes filter and carb apart and cleaned out the full lot whilst getting high on white spirit but done a good job of it nonetheless, and plenty of petrol, I hope its nothing electrical that will be a twat to find :/ doesn't seem to be overheating although it has smelt of a sort of melting/ burning rubber smell but it has always done it so maybe this could be something? But when it has been running I never seem to be able to tell where it is coming from???

[skippy]

well if you been running 79 jet change that to 81or 82. se if that makes it better. if fuel bole empty will take a bit to fill and get started.

[matthew_addison]

Ahh maybe that's it did take a good 5 mins for the bowl to fill enough to start it so it must be an undersized jet, surprised that its only recently stopped working and not straight away

[skippy]

may not be the case..... but just thought.... if it was running lean, after a wile the engine would get hot. maybe even warp the piston or rings. that could cause more friction. this in turn may make the engine harder to turn over. this may just be rantings by a fool though.

id try a new jet. just remember it will take a wile to fill, befor it turns over. if it works i would then do a plug chop on a new plug of corse. to see how the engine is running.
