86 Honda Elite SR 50CC wont stay running
Posted: Sun Jul 28, 2019 5:10 pm
I'll try to do this the short version, we just bought a 86 Honda Elite SR 50cc We can get it started while holding the throttle but the second it goes to idle it stalls out.
Already tried;
Good Spark, drained the fuel and the oil and replaced, Cleaned the carb, Checked compression, the guy before us did the whole upper on it, Checked and cleaned out the air filter, we do know that it has a bad oil pump but we bypassed it by mixing the fuel to try to get it started and running.
We removed the air filter and got it to start and stay running for about a minute and then stalled back out and we had to start the whole process over again to get it started. It's almost as if it doesn't get enough air then gets too much.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
