whats wrong with the honda? im an expert on the elsinore carbs, ive done so much work on them, i could probably literally take one apart and rebuild it blindfolded.

well the guy tells me it floods it will start and run for awhile but die so im thinking theres something wrong with the float level or maybe a jet is clogged and maybe a good carb cleaning would help..it also needs a spacer i guess..thats what he said..so im buying a carb for it that comes with a spacer. its been rebuilt and what not...

maybe the float is sticking, or something, those carbs are easy to work on, try hondatrailbikes.com thats where i get all my carbs and accessories.
