Hi,
I this is my first time on the forum and I understand this has probably already been posted about. Any help / links will be greatly appreciated
Ok so I've dug my 2.5 out after a couple years no use. I've completely stripped and rebuilt the engine there's no sign of rust and bearings look and feel fine.
I've reset to factory settings which I believe to be 4 turns out on high speed needle, 1 3/4 turn out on low speed with a .7-1mm gap on idle needle. I also turned the hsn out a bit more due to tuned pipe
Here's the issue
It won't start unless I add throttle, at which point it will run fine until throttle is let off, I also managed to richen it until it changed into second gear whilst holding it up.
I tried driving it around later on to find that it's also revving really high but moving around really slowly.
I've tried turning the piston around to what I now believe to be the correct position, with the small cut out facing towards the carburettor inlet (although on your YouTube video it looked as though you pull it out with the cutout facing the exhaust?)
I'm running 20% fuel
Thanks in advance and sorry if I don't reply much later on as I'm GMT and it's getting near to bed time, however ill look when I'm up in the morning before work!
