Default blaster problem

Alright i was riding my blaster today and the day before it wasnt running at its permormance. I rode it today and after about 5 minuets of riding it , it started to bog down and eventually shut off.. I tried to kick start it but didnt start. My gas and my choke were both on. As the quad started to bog down and shut off i tried to give it gas and rite before it shut down i heard a loud click in my motor and i wondered wat it was. It sounded to me that something in the engine snapped off or came loose. I tried to start it up again rite after and couldnt start it. I then smelled a burning smell and i sniffed the pipe and it smelt like something was burnt. I went in and left the quad alone after that. After a hour and a half i went back out and tried to start the quad and it started but after riding it for about 20 seconds it shut off. I might be thinking that i maybe didnt put enough oil and to much gas wen i mixed it , but im pretty sure i mixed it exactly 32:1. I would appreciate the help if anyone knows about the problem.......Thank you for your time.

Sounds like your engine is finally BLOWN!!!!!!!!!!. Evidently you're not using the oil self-mixer if you mixed it yourself, but I believe the self mixer is more reliable than depending on a human to mix it right. If you got the oil/gas mixture pretty close that should not be the cause of your engine failure. You can mix it 50:1 and still be OK. It was probably just it's time to go and you can rebuild it very easily and cheap, as the Blaster is probably the least expensive quad to buy parts for. Probably just need piston, rings and a bore.

A new top end is in order. I agree.
