I was riding home and the bike tried to stall, got a block from home and it did. I was able too restart it but any atempt to use the throttle and she die's. one time it started and rpm's went up to 3,000 on a warm engine.
I know i need to due the valves, I'm thinking intake manifold or something in the carb.
Any Idea's i'm thinking carb diaphram.

Ride safe

What engine size?

It's a 150cc gy6.

Sounds like a tear in the diaphragm or the main jet is totally clogged. Had that happen about a year ago, cleaned the gunk out of the jet and added seafoam and all was well.

Thanks guys

ok i was hoping to have more fun trying to help

[billtrout]

just an update i replaced the clip and cleaned the carb out, it looked spotless.
I can get it too fire up but try and give it gas of any kind and it dies. If i so much as touch the throttle it dies. any idea's??

I had the same problem just not as sensitive. I changed my carb and the problem was fixed. Is it flooding?

[billtrout]

It does not seem too be flooded.

Did you adjust the valves? It sounds like you have a vacuum leak. Spray WD-40 around the carb and intake and then listen for any hissing noises that indicate a hose with a crack.
