TROUBLE SHOOTING
THE ENGINE DOES NOT START
Please check:
switch on-off
cable of the spark plug
correct spark plug gap
all the connections of the electric plant
that fuel arrives correctly from the tank to the carburettor
FLOODED ENGINE
Dismantle the spark plug
dry it well
before re-assembling it, let the propeller turn slowly 2/3 times.
THE ENGINE DOES NOT HOLD IDLE SPEED OR HAS AN IRREGULAR SPEED
Clean and adjust the carburettor.
Check the reed valve petals are closing completely.
Hold the reed up to a light and you should not see any light past the petal seating area.
THE ENGINE CANNOT REACH MAXIMUM SPEED
Check cable pulling throttle fully open.
Check that there is no dirt in the carburettor or tank-filter nor restrictions in the fuel pipe, due
to too tight curves, or air bubbles.
Check the spark plug; is it’s worn, change it with one of the same brand and same heat range.
In case the head is dismantled to be decarboned, change both the head gasket and the
cylinder gasket.
