Okie, this is driving me nutz, killed the oil injection and use premix now 50:1 and my bike still won't idle, it runs fine but the bastard just WONT idle, I can't ride it on the streets till then, kinda unsafe to restart it at every stop sign almost.
Tomos bullet TT "top tank" a35 engine. HELP
I still think ya might have a plugged exhaust....you runnin too rich still ? cause if so ya might be floodin out.

I cleaned the exhaust and im not running to rich anymore. guess i'll clean it again to make sure..
Ok, onto secondary possible culprits.
Idle adjustment screwed - I think we can discount that one, check to make sure, of course.
Throttle adujstment too slack - too slack and your throttle cable might actually not be holding open enough to keep sufficient fuel moving to sustain combustion.
Plug gap misadjusted - shorten it a hair and see if that helps.
Timing off - If it's a CDI, I dunno....but if it's points, adjust the timing a bit.
Do these one at a time so ya know which one fixes the problem, mind.

if its idleing to low its one of five things
1 you need to turn the little idle screw in
2 the mixture is to rich or to lean make sure you have the correct jet in it
3 the rings are worn
4 a seal is out possibly the trans side which would cause it to cut off at idle
5 carb is dirty
