Re: no power
Did you put the piston in with the holes towards the intake? If thats a yes try running it with the muffler loose to see if its clogged up. last thing If you didn't replace the crank seals that may be the problem, if those are bad your fuel pump and intake won't work right and your engine will starve for gas

Re: no power
I would recommend sticking with the original muffler. A lot of times, the issue is that it is simply clogged up with carbon. A muffler BBQ usually solves the problem. Just take it out of the cart and place it into a hot fire. The carbon will burn out and it should be free flowing again.
Did it used to smoke bad when the engine got to temperature? It is common for older 2-strokes to do that. |
