    Stuck float/needle valve will cause the crankcase to fill with fuel. Take apart the carburetor and make sure the float is not full of fuel and can still float. Clean the needle and seat to ensure it still seals well. Then put together and see if it works. Sometimes you need to make small adjustments to the bowl to stop the fuel in time. But cleaning and ensuring the float still floats… should get it most of the time.

      Yup, stuck float or needle, or needle doesn't seat properly. The hose ports on the carb are most likely vacuum ports that would allow tuning the carb based on the amount of vacuum the engine is creating in the intake. I don't know much about them, but somebody probably does. I think throwing the carb in the ultrasonic cleaner (after having removed as many of the rubber parts as possible) and checking the needle and seat will get you 90% of the way there.

      And I would delete the reverse gear as I think that is not adjusted correctly so is the reason for the shocks opening when you put power down. If deleting it gets you the speed, then try adjusting the reverse clutch system.

    Hi. I've wrestled with these things and those kinds of carbs alot so here's a couple perhaps helpful notes:
    -The non-existant idle is a sign of the pilot jet being clogged (duh).
    -The flooding is due to the needle & seat and/or floats being bad, as many people have already said.
    -The plugged-off hose is a vacuum line for an automatic fuel valve, which has been replaced with a regular tap-type.
    -The round thing on top of the carb with the broken hose is a Coasting Valve. It detects high vacuum in the intake (occurs when releasing the throttle at high RPM) and dumps more fuel in to prevent running lean.
    -The missing hoses are probably fuel overflow and drain lines.
    -the electric component on the carb is a solenoid enricher, it should click open when cranking and release when you let go of the starter button.
    -The stalling on throttle is a sign of the carb vacuum slide being sticky.
    These Constant Velocity, or "CV" carbs NEED the proper amount of intake vacuum to operate properly, and that's why it instantly shuts off at the end when you touch the throttle with the airbox removed.
    -The CVT weights being stuck can also cause stalling. The kart seems to work better in reverse, because reverse is geared lower. Maybe focus on the carb for now, though.
    -Best course of action is to take the carb off, clean the jets and the coasting valve and the slide. The slide should move without major "bumps" when pushed, and lower all the way down to idle position gently, by itself, when released.

    I think it might be stuck on from where you shortened the cable by doubling it over.
    The way it loads up the suspension when giving it gas is the same thing that happened in a car with the e-brake on..

    If the fuel is emptying into the crank case, then the carb float is either stuck, got crud stuck in it, get the carb off, strip it down, give it a good clean,make sure the float shuts off properly when your rebuilding it, try it again. 😊

    @larryelliott6321 วันที่ผ่านมา +7

    Engine has spark and air, so obviously the fuel mix is the problem. It acts like a float-needle valve issue. My guess would be the carburetor float is corroded and filled with gas causing the needle valve to stay open. This would explain flooding the crankcase when the engine is off and choking the engine when opening the throttle. I'd recommend repairing or replacing the carb float.

  • @weiggie66
    @weiggie66 วันที่ผ่านมา +3

    I think the grease that you put on the clutch drum has contaminated the friction material and is causing it to slip. Also, the carb needs rebuilt with a new accelerator pump diaphragm. Follow the previous carb cleaning and float needle valve suggestions to stop the engine fooding and oil contamination. Along with the idle speed screw there are usually two additional adjustment screws on the carb. One is for smooth idle air/fuel mixture and the other is for load condition. Start by screwing them both all the way in until they gently touch bottom. Then try backing them off one and a half turns. Make fine adjustments from this point. Good luck Ants.

    The hose, which is sealed with a screw, is for vacuum to the fuel tap from the tank. In a different design, or at other times, these mopeds have an automatic fuel tap. When the engine is running, the vacuum from the carburetor opens it, then finally closes it by itself. Unfortunately, it often stops working, and then there is a solution with a regular fuel tap.

    Your internal fuel leaking is the needle and seat and the lack of power is the jets.Take the carb apart, it's not hard. Clean the float needle and seat and clean the jets with thin wire or use the tips of a torch cleaner set to clean the jets. Don't put the whole tip cleaner through the hole in the jet or it will open the jet and make it too large and that's not a good idea. I bet it will run great if you put an hour into cleaning that carb. That carburetor looks a lot like the one on my 97 Harley, they are very easy to work on, don't be afraid to take it apart. I'll bet all those hoses are for emissions and you could probably plug them all and not have an issue. Any gas motor that has been sitting for 2 or 3 years that wouldn't start and run right would have the carb off and on the bench.

    One of the open vacuum ports should have opened the fuel valve when the engine was in it's former scooter frame, so it can be blocked off for sure.
    Checking on the float and the idle circuit would be a good starting point, as it was suggested before.
    Also the CVT under the black cover at the left side would benefit from a good check up, could be even the fly clutch in the rear that is stuck from sitting...or the belt itself.
    Good luck with it, seems well built, never seen a reverse clutch like this has...

    Few pointers if you decide to come back to this project:
    To me it seems the buggy wants to move as it's rotating the rear-part up when it gets torgue but something prevents it from moving freely. Are you sure the front brakes are not sticking? Sticking brake can prevent driving in one direction but allow into another and it did drive in reverse. The whole time it moved, it looked the engine was struggling to overcome some braking force.
    That smoke you saw in 49:54 from the the transmission case could be if the engine is pushing the CVT and the belt to it's limit. Never tinkered much with them but that seems like it's CVT housing....
    The throttle has a variable 'throat', it's the cylinder vibrating up and down when the engine idles. There is a membrane above that should move it up and down according to the vacuum, allowing more air in when high RPM. If the vacuum hoses has been cut, blocked or are leaking, it would prevent the throat from opening which could stall the engine when it gets more gas and goes too rich. You could try lifting that cylinder with something and see if it helps with the engine not stalling.
    Dude, that "liquid" in 24:19 is not looking good, at all. If you decide to keep it, open that brake cylinder and clean it. There should be seal kits available (piston + few o-rings) so you don't need to buy the whole cylinder. Then, drain all the liquids out and put new one in. Cheap investment on the long run. Also, there are one man bleeding kits that allows one person to bleed brakes, makes it quick and easy to change and bleed brakes.

    The left cover on that engine is a CVT type transmission. It has a belt and variable width pulleys. It is most likely that one of the pulleys is stuck and is keeping it in a high Drive ratio which prevents you from starting out. The reverse gears down the speed which is why it works better if you can get that side cover off you will probably get this fixed otherwise it seems to be okay

    The carb has two gas systems,
    one idle system to make sure the engine keeps running without you pressing the gass pedal
    and one gas system for when you do press the gass padel.
    And there are smal passages inside so any dirt will clog it, so just pulling the carb out, dismantel all you can and blow thow it with air will often make it run good again,
    And alwas use 98oktan gas(supreme) the regular one goes bad and crysalises and then clogs the system.
    Also in the bottom of the carb is a plastic floter that need to move freely and the needel that conects with it needs to be clean and that needel and floter is what opens and closes the phuel into the carb😊

    Hello Andris, We call them Go Carts here. Pretty much just for fun riding around on beaches and trails they are not street legal here strictly dirt roads and trails and beaches. We have a place here where they built a track for riding them around and people race each other. You might have to try starting it in Neutral then put it in gear. We have a four wheeler that needs to start in Neutral. It looked like the brakes were locking up. Put the carburetor in your sonic cleaner and clean it up and see if that helps.

  • @mikehunt3222

    Sounds like a stuck float. The float might not be floating anymore because it’s full of fuel or the needle valve is stuck. Or both. Carburetors aren’t very complicated once you take them apart and figure them out. Also sounds like you might have a vacuum leak. Those small engines also need back pressure from the exhaust to idle correctly and run anywhere near decent so if the exhaust isn’t sealed very good it could run like poop.

  • @walterkucharski4790

    It looks like the front brake calibers are reversed the bleeder should be on top to let air out. Besides the fuel issues these machines are a lot of fun. I repaired a few of these for friends. When the fuel washes out the cylinder there is a loss of compression which won't let it start. Good luck.

    Ants, you should open the carburator and clean it. I guess there are a lot of mud, that can helps the fuel valve to stuck. Also check the voltage on electrical chock on the carburetor.

      I thought my welding was crap, then someone pointed this out to me. Inside the welder you can switch the terminals by the output, and now I honestly don't think I want to go back. The welds come out cleaner. You just have to use some weld spray to keep the dusty crap off the metal to make painting easier. Try it one time. Bet you a nice sausage it works.

    use some tooth paste and take the float needle and lap it. easy cheap lapping. These things are usually jetted with the restriction of a air filter installed, so if you have it still it will run better. they run lean without any restriction. Either way, I dont blame you for not wanting to work on that crap, but thanks for the video. I'm glad im not working on it!

    Those motors are a belt driven CVT like all twist and go mopeds and it sounds like the belt maybe shot especially when you factor in your friends size. Also the carburettors on those types of engines are in my opinion, total junk and are amazingly hard to set up. Red Beards Garage has some good videos on how to convert those over to a go power sports replacement carb & fuel pump combo. .

  • @tonywatson987
    @tonywatson987 วันที่ผ่านมา

    Andris, in addition to the stuck float/carb problem, I think the CVT output cone is jammed in low speed - the power cone is trying to ramp up the speed, but can't, causing massive friction and drag. Hence the stalling and smoke from the left hand rear. Same symptoms you have - it will trickle along at low revs, but bog down if you try to add more power. Hope your a$$ is OK. ;-)

He could’ve bought a new key switch at least, instead of using a screwdriver to start the crap 💩?

    100% there are some brakes on or some driveline/bearings etc stuck on rear end. The rear goes up when you try to drive + the CVT (Variaator) should not start smoking as easy for that small of a ride, it will smoke when its overloaded.
    Have a good one! Kaasmaalane. :)
