G1 Problems

[old_cart_new_tires]

Hey ya'll i got a G1 85 so it would stall going down hills took carb apart float stuck adjusted it so it would close. Now once i run it for a bit it wont idle throttle up i pulled fuel line its squirting gas good and fuel filter is full? Im mixing gas not using injector. Checked exhaust butter fly its working and the throttle link is moving im super lost any direction would be great someone told me of flaps behind carb causing flooding any possibility on this? Also some times if i pump gas quickly it seems to go?

you shouldn't have had to adjust the float just clean the seat and the other passages. if you adjusted the float the bowl maybe running out of fuel

As for the "flaps behind the carb" thats you Reed valve if you are getting fuel blow back into the air filter then the reeds are bad but vary rarely they go bad

Did you check compression?

These G1's are known for the crank seals to go bad. Look behind the clutch, is there wet oil near the crankshaft? If so, seals are bad. This will cause poor running and low power.

I adjusted the float because when i manually pushed it up and blew into the fuel line it didnt close.
On the compression note when it warms up this could cause a loss of power at that point. It almost seems like it has a cold start injector that doesnt ahut off like a Toyota even though i know it doesn't.

theres a service manual for download in the garage section that will help.

If it loses power when hot, bad idle hot, and all is good when cold that is classic 2 stroke for worn out or bad seals. Its losing compression. If the rings/cylinder are worn it will do that, sometimes bad seals get worse with heat too but usually seals make them hard to start you have to choke it a lot to start.

Ya i dont have to choke it it fires up and runs like a beast till it gets hot i do a compression test at cold then hot and see if it is reading any different ill post what i find thanks for all your help.

is your fuel tank vent working maybe its starving for fuel?

[old_cart_new_tires]

No its getting fuel i even pulled the float bowl off when it started acting up and it had plunty of gas in it? The previous owner put some cheap ebay carb on it could this be an issue?
