MOPED ARMY

like a screeching noise?

i'm already mixing at 40:1 and i'm jetted at 100. haha!

oh, and yea, it is a screeching noise and yes it does start up again after a few minutes.

i'm so frustrated!!! if i continue to soft seize, will i mess up the engine?

yikes!! i hope i didn't already mess it up!

hmmm....i do believe that you are right about the air leak. wasn't there some post on how to check for air leaks? but then again, i think i've done a plug chop (is that what it's called?) and it was running right. i'm so confused. oh yea, and frustrated.

do you think that's why my moped is making high pitched noises?

yes it sounds like you have a leak.

check your gaskets and then make sure everything is tight. you cas spray a little propane around too.

Hmm I dont know.I bet it would. It would probably drop the rpm's since its a lubricant Give it a try.But by the sound of things if it did nothing I would then try with carb cleaner or starting fluid. Make sure you dont get any in the carb and get a false reading.

jet sounds to big are you only opening the throttle partially when going at top speed?

To serach for leaks, WD 40 isn't the stuff you want. It's too thick.

Use carb cleaner, brake cleaner, starting fluid etc. Spray-can deodorant works well too.

i noticed last night that when i did go full throttle, my ped started to bog a little.

yea, i think i used all the gaskets. i'm pretty sure i did.

so, i should use the wd 40?

i'm not going to be able to look at my ped until i can get someone to help me get my ped out of the basement. it's soooo heavy.

is there something that i can do/check without starting my ped?

Ill help you get it out after work. I want to start the case matching anyway so we can wrench on peds together.

All four are shot?

Yumster, to check for air leaks use starting fluid. WD-40 might be too thick for it, but if you have it handy you can try it. You can use carb cleaner too, just don't get it on anything painted.

So, I'd suggest starting fluid to check for air leaks. If you don't have any, it's pretty cheap at any auto parts store.

Ignore my WD-40 rant, I got off on a tangent. haha

100 jet is really big. Are you sure your jet isnt clogged up a little? air leak is easy to fix. I run mine at 16:1 and then jet richer because I like the way two stroke smoke smells alot. It carbons up your exhaust port eventually tho. Also I think the metra kit la instructions says to break in at 3% synthetic oil. I dont know spanish very well. But thats almost 32:1 and if you are using petrol based two cycle oil you need to use more than that. here is a link of the instructions if you can read them better than I. Its a huge pic tho sry.
