I got my first time 2-atroke 49cc kit installed with only a few small problems I was able to resolve with info and help from this forum. Thanks.
Now I find that it starts easy enough, and I've been riding it around a few blocks for a short time. Several times, while cruising at less than full speed, it has just stopped dead and rolled to a stop. I've always been able to get it started again after a few minutes though. After searching and reading many posts, I haven't found an answer, but here are some things which might be related: putting on 1/2 choke caused it to fire a few more times, there is a slight rubber smell (I thought the chain was rubbing the tire, but no), there was enough fuel/oil mix on the bottom of the float bowl to wet my finger. That's about all I got. Can anyone help me?

You hit the nail right on the gas cap! Simple test confirmed no-vent situation, simple drill bit fixed it! Thanks for your input! Sure glad I found this forum or I'd have no grey hair left!
