Hey all hoping someone can help me i have a elstar blade with a lifan 125 it seems to be having trouble starting and when it does only rides for 5 mins and bogs down and stalls cleaned car by checked for spark checked fuel supply to car by . Even did a compresstion test which gave me 50psi seem to be at my wits end what else can I check. Cheers guys

Mine was doing the same thing. I tapped the lower casing of the carby and it worked fine. My float needle was sticky. I hope it help.

So for that 5min at the beginning it rides fine no issues ?

ps... please be more proactive with a real topic title not just "help" your in the tech section its like asking for some sand at the beach

oh my bad new to these forums. will keep in mind if i need to post something again:hache:. yeah i found the problem i think havnt taken it for a ride but seems the fuel line from the tank was being bent and causing a fuel blockage. since changed it and will take it for a ride when i get a chance will let everyone know how i go if i make it up my moutain of a drive way cheers:applaudit:

that sounds like the problem thus my question about the 5mins, a carbi will hold enough fuel for a few minutes riding around before it runs out..
