Scooterotica

All stock apart from
Pipe when it does start it races all over place and takes ages to fall on to tick over lost count how many times carb as been apart anyone help cheers

sounds like an air leak.

Maybe worth investing in a leak test kit.

Wouldn't go too far on it till it's sorted.

Just ordered a brand new carb

air leak could be any where........cylinder head, base, seals, casings, etc

Good advice

Its got brand new gaskets and a new fly side oil seal even put head gasket on ..it will fall off the revs after a short time but rev it again and its all revs all over place again

maybe an uneven carb body suffice onto the block(worn) had a P2 doing similar it was Diablo who sussed it at about 11pm after a few hours of head scratching.Try another carb body with all your jetting in it it may or may not work

If its non of these,check that your carb hasn't been overtightened and caused it to deform along the bottom causing it to draw air in.

yep that's what i said

Has the gear oil level dropped? Also, sometimes an overtightened carb body can prevent the slide fully returning. A worn throttle cable can stop the slide too resulting in the high revs you describe.
