Just got done putting my motor back together b/c it blew up about 4 mths ago. Well its running and its not knocking or anything BUT the left side is not running right. Its like slugish..The pipe is getting hot but its not running right. The right side is. What would be the problem/ solution? I am getting the compression checked out tomorrow... Any thoughts or suggestions.

 

Check the plugs, other than that i cant help yah out there i dont know much about 2-strokes

 

loosing compresion? or carb problem?

 

I check the spark plugs, they are brand new. ds racer im not sure ... i just know the buddy that is helping me ( he knows what he is doing) started it and the right side shooting hot air out the pipes sounds good but that left side is sluggish.. He told me to take it to the shop where he's friend works and check the compression to make sure its balance...Make scence?

 

Mine did the exact same thing, you need a rebuild,Thats definatly what it is, thats why mine is a 370 instead of a 350 and its a 97'.

 

well one of your floats could be stuck and flooding the motor just my 2 cents

 

There is a slim chance this could have happend but it happend to my friends banshee.

He went to the gas station to fill up on gas, but the oil in first, then the gas, started it up and one sie was slugish, we went to his garage and sure enough the carb was flooded with oil.

Just thought it would be somethin to check.

 

he just rebuilt it
Anyways it does sound like a stuck float.
