Hi all, first post on the forum. Hello and thank you for listening/reading.
Here's the deal. 66/80cc kit from www.bekits.com.
Got it installed and had it running good for 3 days. Then suddenly it started to lose power, missfire, backfire on deceleration, and now it's doing all that and running WAY more rough - to the point where it shakes my arms and legs pretty bad, and won't idle - just dies if I stop giving it gas, and I really can't ride it because it just screams something is very wrong.
This could be a coincidence, or not - but this started occurring around the same time that the bike was accidentally left out in heavy rain. I can't say whether it was exactly after being left in the rain or not...but thought it should definitely be mentioned.
I'm at a loss. So far this is what I've tried:
- Removed, drained and cleaned carb, checked for proper functioning the best I know how
- Removed and cleaned air filter
- Replaced spark plug
- Drained and replaced fuel/oil mix (which is at a 20:1 ratio for break-in period as per the seller at www.bekits.com)
- Replaced fuel filter
- Removed chain gear cover - nothing obviously out of whack from the outside view
- Removed the cover to the left of chain gear cover - the electrical area with magnet (not sure what all that's called) - nothing obviously out of whack, but I don't know anything about what's in there
- Removed clutch cover - There is a build-up of fuzzy looking stuff along with the normal grease on the back side of the cover. Yeah, it just looks like fine fuzz, about the color of the air filter element - a dark grey, almost black.
I think that's it...along with a great deal of internet research.
Any ideas??? I greatly appreciate it if you followed this far.
Thank you,
Sean
