So I bought my boys a pocket bike.&nbsp; He was actually ripping around on it this past Saturday (photo attached)<br /><br />Anyhow, I took it for a rip that day as well and it seemed to bog when I gave it 3/4 to full throttle.&nbsp; It would die out if I were to hold it open as such.&nbsp; It&#039;s just started doing this.<br /><br />So, Saturday night, my son convinced my wife to come and check out his newfound ridin&#039; skills.&nbsp; So I fired up the bike in the driveway and it started fine.&nbsp; Rode it down the driveway, it bogged out and stalled and when I went to try it again - no go.&nbsp; <br /><br />I fought with the stupid thing all Sunday afternoon and it&#039;ll sputter here and there (barely ever though).&nbsp; It seems to have a real decent spark (I pulled it out) and it&#039;s getting fuel.&nbsp; I drained the float bowl on the carb and then it tried to start but died.<br /><br />Anyhow...the only thing I did different than usual was mix less oil in with the gas (25:1) as I had already run through about 5 tanks mixing it at 20:1 to break it in.<br /><br />I&#039;m stumped...ideas? Before I call someone to take a gander??<br /><br />I have the carbs draining right now, I figure I&#039;ll try and put 20:1 back in but I can&#039;t see that being the problem...<br /><br />Anyway..he had a blast and I feel for my boy as I can&#039;t get the stupid thing goin&#039; again and my arm&#039;s real tired :rofl:

Was the plug wet when you pulled it out? My first guess would be that it maybe flooding since the problem started when you were going 3/4 to WOT. Either that, or what does it have for a choke? :dunno:<br /><br />Could try and look at that after we get your other bikes wiring fixed :beerchug:

haha...i&#039;ll bring it over. I have a feeling you&#039;re right - the plug was a bit wet...but not overly. I dried it off and put it back in and it didn&#039;t even sputter so I dunno...<br /><br />It&#039;s nothing to throw it in the back of the van though...so we&#039;ll see O0

Alright, should make for a full evening of wrenching on bikes&nbsp; paz_smilie:.<br /><br />And the best part of that is once you are done, you always have to go for a test ride to make sure it still all works :jump:

that&#039;s right!!&nbsp; unksmilie:
