    Quicker starts

    Hi guys, the Minarelli 50cc 2 stroke on my '70 Broncco runs great after about 10 attempts at kick starting it. It's getting fuel, the Champion J8C is new, I can't find a hotter plug than it. It helps if I crack the throttle to give it some air, but I would like it to start after a couple kicks...

    Brand new Coleman bike starts and is in full throttle!

    So my BIL got a new Coleman bike, it's a 6.5 gx200 clone. First time he started it .....it was in full throttle running. Glad we held the brake while starting it. I see the throttle stem that's attached to the throttle stop that rests against the idle screw on the carb, seems to not be resting...

    4hp Briggs problem.

    I have an early 60's 4hp Briggs all stock with the pulsajet carb that starts to pop and sputter at higher rpms. It has always run great with no issues up until about a month ago. It starts and idles fine and runs great up to a certain rpm. I thought it sounded like it was running out of fuel but...

    Hello all. I'm refreshing a few Tec engines, and one is just kicking my ass. After refreshing, which included new ignition parts, carb rebuild, clean head, fresh paint, and new kill switch, two are running great after adjusting, but one will start at half choke, and idle at half choke, and...

    Tecumseh 5HP powersport engine, hard starts

    i prime the carb, and go to start it, it will not idle, and only stays running with the throttle on/held open. the filter was off to get you a visual of the carb. what would make the engine need the throttle open just to pull enough fuel through to keep it running? the carb is fully cleaned...
