thats not nipping up, as coaster said nicasil cylinders dont normaly nip up and you keep going, sounds like either a fuel problem or maybe a broken ring, what carb are you running and are you running it through the airbox ??? [/quote]
Ah right, my mistake. Carb is Jetex, 22 I think. I'm not great on these things as you probably gathered! Was just after a rough idea before I speak to the shop where it was kitted.
Seize and keys ...

Also get a container and pull the petrol pipe off the carb and check what the fuel flow is like. If you use a stop whatch, I think it should take no more than about 60 seconds to flow 1 pint (someone correct me if I'm wrong with the time). It could also be float or float valve related but check the flow through the tap first.ktmh5 wrote:I had the same sort of symptoms when the filler cap breather hole was blocked. Have you checked this?
PS, is there any back firing or does it just die?
