2 stroke engine flooded
I had the carb float hang up on my cart. Its a 91 2 stroke. Turn it over with spark plug out. Pumped alot of gas out. Is there crankcase oil and if so where is drain plug?

Re: 2 stroke engine flooded
im going by my dirtbikes but 2 strokes dont use crankcase oil like a 4 stroke.if its flooded bad i would pull the sparkplug and let it turn over a dozen revs or so till you dont see any fuel come out the spark plug hole. it uses the oil premixed or injected seperatly to lube the bottom end. like i said thats a general statement as to dirtbikes but im not familiar with the design of the cart motors.

Re: 2 stroke engine flooded
Careful cranking it over,Unhook the wires to the coil first(electrical-wires not the spark-plug),Otherwise you'll have a BBQ instead of a Flood!

Re: 2 stroke engine flooded
Take out the spark plug and put the piston all the way to the bottom. Put a hair dryer to the spark plug hole and let it run about an hour. This will dry out all the fuel from the crankcase. Give your engine a small squirt of 3 in 1 oil ( or similar ) into the carb throat and it should start after a few turns! The oil will lubricate the moving parts until the fuel mix replenishes the oil that the wet fuel removed.

Re: 2 stroke engine flooded
Thanks everyone. Really wasnt sure if there was oil in the crankcase and didnt want to waste some bearings or do any other damage.
