Have you just built it? Is it a new problem? Anything changed recently? |

yes it has just been fully rebuilt but i haven't done anything with the carby yet as i was going to put a sc12 on it after it was run in and all the bugs worked out. the air filter is just one of those foam ramflow ones. i have just checked for any leaks and can't find not even a hint af a leak. |

Basic things to check first: -Idle mixture correct -Choke closes properly (check that the jet isn't stuck open) -Check the float bowl level -Timing Get someone to put their hand near the exhaust pipe, and hit the gas. If they're hand is wet or black, you're running too rich - check the idle mixture, choke and bowl. If the exhaust is normal, it may be a timing issue. |

Is your fuel gauge correct? |
