ok so jere is the story. I bought an '86 quadracer about 2 months ago as a basket case. in the 2 months i have stripped the frame repainted everything, replaced whetever looked worn out and so on. The guy i bought it from told me the stator was shot and thats why it hasn't ran in 4 yrs. well anyways its all back together now. yesterday i deceided to test the spark ....what do you know its fine/ so then i run to the gas station put some go-go juice in her, pull the choke lever up and guess what?? second kick she fires up, idles and everything. now my problem is when i push the choke lever down she has a bad bogg then stalls out almost like the choke is on. once it is warmed up i can start it with the choke lever up, but it taked about 10 kicks and then about 5 sec. later die out. can anyone help me out? i sprayed starting fluid around the motor and nothing happened. so there is no air leak anywhere. am i doing something wrong? Is the stator bad? thanx for any input

 

im having same prob with my 86 wif a 90 motor the thing did that too me like 5 times then no spark all sudden i found the complete stator assembly headlight keyswitch taillight coil regulator and cdi on ebay all for 127.00 bet my buddy can ride her this week or ill throw it away and tell him buy one i have my 87 heheheheheheh oh yeah i checked all the components with my ohmeter and all were good accept cdi and it cant be accurately checked hope u figure yours out seeings u still have spark right?if so obviosly diff problem good luck

 

Sounds like something is plugged ni the carb
