air leak? no idle.. weird

tomos alukit on e50

1515 del SHA

drilled out intake to 14ish

Polini pipe

50cc highcomp

b6hs

70 main

idle screw all the way in

so i had boyesen reeds but fucked them up by installing them incorrectly.

so while waiting for my new malossi reeds i threw the old stockers back in.

but for some reason its really hard to start and when it does it wont idle.

when i let off the throttle the revs will fall reall low and when i open the throttle to catch it from dieing, it just dies.

im confused.

airleak?

i just painted shit with rattle can and im pretty sure i dont have an air leak so i havent checked.

def have good spark

searched a little but no one had the whole open the throttle and it dies thing goin on.

Re: air leak? no idle.. weird

ill take that as "you have an air leak!"

Re: air leak? no idle.. weird

took the reeds off and the rubber sealant (dont know if it came stock) was all bubbly and wasnt making a seal.

so i put some high temp red silicone gasket maker on and spread it with a credit card. hopefully itll hold up for the next week or so till my reeds come.
