Gas Gas Recent Questions, Troubleshooting Help & Support

You need to change the power pack to cool start and hot start the engine.

The clutch needs adjustment for travel.

You may be right - check the fuse to see if it has blown due to a ground short.

You don't mention what machine you have, and the year. On a Honda there is a chance that you have a bad part in the panel for your gas gauge. You would have to replace that. There are similar issues on other makes.

Best guess I can make with the limited info is check the fuel cap vent. If it runs fine with the cap off or open you found the problem. Engines that are running very lean (not getting enough fuel) can sound terrible, Frank

You replaced the wire, right? Check your installation and make sure it's right.

OK just using logic, no specialist knowledge but... If temperature fluctuates, then it sounds more like a thermostat/heat control problem. If it CAN get hot then doubtless there is gas available... It's probably something to do with the heat controller unit - can you get it checked? have you looked inside the unit to see if there is any obvious issues?

Air filter may be blocked and inspect exhaust baffles and clean.

Kerry, Check for vacuum leaks, check the fuel line is not old and collapsing (they can look good on the outside and inner collapsed), if it ha a vented cap make sure it is not plugged.Were the floats set correctly or could be sticking. There still is a chance dirt has been re introduced into jets to. Good luck.

Tweek the tick over screw (idle screw) on the carb.
Any more information just ask me. :)

Hope this helps.

Will it idle at any time?

its an older 3 wheeler it might need a set of rings and a timing chain it is prob loosing compression when it gets warmed up does it fire up when it cools down

Is the machine a two stroke? Because if it is a blocked exhaust (full of carbon deposits) will cause exactly this symptom. The best way to clean it is to stand it on its end and fill it with oven cleaner and leave it for a day. In the old days it was just a case of heating the exhaust with a blow lamp and tapping the pipe gently to loosen the deposits

The best way to remove the old ignition lock is to remove the top yolk because most likely the lock will be FASTENED WITH SECURITY BOLTS. various videos on youtube might help

You would not fix a wiring diagram in most circumstances so what is your question really about. If you want wiring diagram you will likley only get one from the manufacturer in a service manual or possibly online.
