Carb settings RXV
I have just purchased a RXV serial # 5012175, It backfires when you accelerate and runs on when you turn of the key, I think someone as messed with the carb setting any ideas?

Re: Carb settings RXV
Not sure on carts but with cars that would be a symptom of timing being off

Re: Carb settings RXV
Sounds like someone moved the governor adjustment so far the throttle plate isn't closing allowing raw fuel in the system with no spark.. Soon as you touch the pedal it goes boom.. I would start by checking your throttle cable where it attaches to the governor and see if there is any slack. If not it is too tight.

Re: Carb settings RXV
While on the subject of governor, the cart I am working on doesn't have it hooked up , I guess when previous guy working on it pulled the carb he cut the governor cable . It runs pretty good , a little lacking on power but how else will it affect it not being hooked up .

Re: Carb settings RXV
If it is topping out at 13 with no gov it has issues. You may want to start a new thread on it..

Re: Carb settings RXV
I would start by cleaning the carb. It should start and idle with no choke.
