[QUOTE="acwd, post: 349095, member: 7495"] Ok replaced the bottom seal on the crankcase. It wasnt in there right. Its worse than ever on starting. I have great spark it jumps a 3/8+ of a inch. So I did some experimenting. I did get it running finally. I can adjust both high and low speed jets in the start position on the grip. they both change the way it runs. Normal? So I shut it off and bled the pressure off the tank and let it sit for over 2 hours. Can back tightened the cap on the tank pulled the choke and fired right off. I think its flooding itself setting with pressure on the tank. I put a carb kit in it. Set the float level as in the book. I give up! Steve [/QUOTE]
