G1 needs to warm up before moving
I have completed the paint job on my '85 G1. Painted it with a rubberized truck bed coating that came in a fine-grit version. Pics are attached. Anyway, the only problem I have with the motor is that the first time I start it for the day, I have to let it run for about a minute before it will take off. The carburetor linkage works fine, and yet I sit there and press on the accelerator, and it doesn't even rev at all ... just keeps idling. After about a minute, it will suddenly take off, and will be fine for the rest of the day. Any suggestions as to what I need to look for? Thanks.

Re: G1 needs to warm up before moving
If you give it a little choke as you step on the accelerator, will it take off then? Maybe it is running a little lean. Could be normal if it is a little cold out.

Re: G1 needs to warm up before moving
If it is lean, try turning the idle jet out a little more. Most like 1.5 turns out. It could be a problem with your throttle cable maybe, does the throttle at the carb move when cold and you gas it? It should go once it runs, it may cut out and bog if you don't keep the choke out, but there is no reason it should not take off. Also make sure its running and not just the starter spinning.

Re: G1 needs to warm up before moving
It's really weird.... engine is running, throttle cable works fine, but NOTHING changes it from idle speed until a minute or so of warmup time has passed! I can sit there and pump the accelerator and it's as if it is connected to nothing at all. Then, all of a sudden, it will take off, responding to the accelerator as if it suddenly decided to respond or something! After it is warmed up, it is fine.... it's as if nothing ever happened!

Re: G1 needs to warm up before moving
Make sure you don't have a problem with the governor or cable carb to governor. If they stick the pedal can go down and throttle not move.
