My roughhouse shut off while coming to stop..

Post by tazdevil02 »

I was slowing down with my roughhouse and when I came to a stop it idled to a complete stop. No I can't crank it over again. Already checked the plug and I seems to be getting fuel. Any suggestions.

I had this happen after I adjusted the idle for colder weather...once it got warmed it was too rich so it flooded the carb and I wasn't able to start it up even by kicking it. I had to adjust the idle fuel mixture screw a bit more lean and then shot some starter fluid in the carb after disconnecting the airbox. It came right up as it ignited the ether in the starter fluid and then I gave it some gas and let it cough itself back to life. Once it was running warm I adjusted the idle speed and mix further and I haven't had a problem since!
