![]() ![]() Anyway, I had purchased a rebuild kit from DRATV some time ago so I went through the entire carb again. Pulled the carb and tried to follow Shadetree's suggestion for testing flow but I wasn't sure how to check it since the gas line connections come off with the bowl. Here's the update: Put the new plastic tank from the other bike on, tried to start it with no luck. Seems like it's getting gas, so I'm now thinking I should check the timing? Any ideas on if it's carb/gas related or a possible timing issue? Played with the air/mix screw a bit and then after it warmed up it quit again. I got it to start and then it ran for awhile but was missing/sputtering when I rev it. I adjusted the air/mix screw most of the way in and adjusted the idle screw all the way in and tried again. I put a new plug in today and cranked it over with no luck. Also re-checked the screen filter as it had a bunch of rust/dirt from before. I pulled the carb again and re-checked/cleaned the main and slow jets. After the engine warmed up some and while I was trying to dial in the carb, it quit and I wasn't able to get it to start again. It started and sounded fine, so I started to adjust the idle screw. Checked spark and it looks good so I fired it up. Anyway, I cleaned it up good put it back together, checked the air filter. I have a carb re-build kit but I think the carb has all new stuff from before. Previously, the tank had rust and I used the PRO-15 kit on it. I have an '85 ATC 70 stock that's been sitting for a long time. Well, I got started and got some great help in the New Member forum so I thought it was time to move over to the R&M forum. ![]()
