Skyhawk GT2B 48cc Clutch

Hi guys! I just received my Skyhawk 48cc kit in the mail, and have been putting it together for the last week. An hour here and hour there. I work a lot so time is precious, So working on 1 thing takes me forever! So I put it all together, Was so excited to get it outside! (Although its bitter bitter cold here!), I went to get it started but came across a few problems. The carburetor has 3 extra hoses that don't goto anything but 1 is leaking gas/oil mixture a lot! One is dangling to the left. and the one on the right is leaking. There is also one in the back that is melted closed (Looks like a lighter was held to it ). Am I suppose to have all these lines un-connected? OH YEAH, the clutch- While pulling the clutch it seems VERY stiff. pulling the level to dis-engage the engine takes both of my hands to do, And it doesn't feel to pleasant on my fingers! I've tried tightening more. No good. Loosened it some.. no good. Any ideas?


Much Appreciated!


PS: The engine started great! But would not idle. As soon as I came to a stop so did the engine. It also kept throwing the chain. I think there is a small wobble that I will have to take care of.

Thanks, Yeah I figured it all out! ^_^. I originally put the sprocket on wrong and didn't realize that I only needed 1 of the rubber isolators that comes with the sprocket and not 2. so it was wobbly at first, Also: Being that I've never used one of these before I never understood how a clutch worked. So I couldn't get it to idle because while the clutch was engaged I was coming to a stop and obviously the engine would shut off with it! Didn't realize I had to actually hold the clutch (Or lock it) before I come to a stop to allow it to continue running (idle). DOH!
