Hey everybody, new to this forum. I have an 1985 or 1984 trike. Originally it was a chain driven 1985 200m and then i had swiitched all body parts over to another frame with a shaft drive 200cc engine.. So im not sure on what year it is.. i dont know if you need to know the year or not..but anyways when its cold it will idol fine. When its hot after a fair bit of a ride, when i come to a stop, most of the time it will quit out. It starts back up very easy and i know the idol is up but i was wondering what the problem might be? Any help would be appreciated.

 

It's quite obviously a carb problem. I would take the carb apart and perhaps rejet it.

 

if you end up doing a carb rebuild kit...check out this post....it may help you find what year engine you have so you can find the correct kit...POST

 

AND welcome!!!!!

 

thanks alot buddy, turns out its a 84'. I was wondering how much a carb kit might run for?

 

$20 at hyperparts Here

 

The idle problem ,might be your valves outta adjustment.

 

good point, plus you may want to adjust your timing chain as well.

 

If i was to adjust the timiing chain, what would i go about doing to it? like advance it or retard it type thing?

 

No....all you do when you adjust it is you put mor tention on it to take up some of the slop in the timing chain
