This Is the problem I am having with my pitbike!

[ThisGuy]

Heyy, I live in Orlando, Fl and my bike has been giving me problems. Some of you guys may have already seen my video but I posted the wrong video. This is my problem now...Why is this happening to my bike? Please help me.Pit bike Carb Issue, Help Me!!!! - YouTube

By the way, to the people that have helped me in earlier threads, Im sorry for reposting things so many times. Im only 15 and am trying my hardest to understand the thing you are telling me. I repost them often to clarify and to get different ideas from people but you guys have been following my posts and are the only ones that re. Thank you for that, I appreciate it though. I have knowledge in pitbikes, just not like you guys who are grown and have been doing this for years. This is my first pitbike and Ive only ad it for a year. Ive been trying my best to maintain it.

As a start does it have a choke, and if so is it on? Also have you checked for any blockages in the fuel line?

Start off pulling the fuel line off the carb, does the fuel run through ok?
Next if you feel confident take off the carb and give it a clean out, YouTube for help if necessary, it isn't overly difficult just take your time. Look for any small debris that may be blocking a jet or passage.

Engines aren't complicated, they don't run for 2 reasons, fuel or electrical. Just eliminate until you find the issue. Good luck mate, keep us posted

Try it with the air cleaner on. Sounds silly I know but see what happens.
Clean your jets out and see what that does

I took off the fuel lines and they are clear all the way through. Right now my carb is apart i just need to get some carb cleaner. Would WD40 work as a good cleaner?

 

[zorro]

Use petrol and compressed air, if no air a can of degreaser and if not the wd40 will be ok.

Would WD40 work as a good cleaner?

No!! especially when compared with carby cleaner, but if you do use it make sure you clean it all out b4 you put it back together and make sure you give those jets a good blow out with the compressor afterwards.

Would this work? Its a can of compressed air. I do not own an air gun thats why I want to get this.

Better than nothing, but use petrol rather than WD40 like Zorro said. Just make sure you remove your rubber seals b4 cleaning it with anything, they swell up really easy and are an absolute pain in the arse to put back in once they swell.

Ok thanks guys! I will put my jets to a 95 and a 20 and clean everything out and let you guys in on how it helped my problem!

try and find some of this for cleaning the carby out.
Buy Sea Foam Motor Treatment for Gas and Diesel Engines (16 fl. oz.) SF16 at Advance Auto Parts

or some of this,
Amazon.com: CRC 05078 Throttle Body and Air-Intake Cleaner - 12 Wt Oz.: Automotive

boith product above will clean out any carbon/gum buildup, and help wash out any dirt/debris from inside the carburettor.
they both will dry off very quickly and dont leave any residue.
be sure to take note of any gaskets and their locations when pulling the carby down.
taking pics as you go can even help when putting it back together too
