buddy111 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 well after going through her with a fine tooth comb im having problems getting the gt80 to start. cleaned the carb very good all the nooks and cranys.....the oil pump injector is the only new thing that i hooked up that wasnt there before...previous owner used pr-mix 32:1 i found a oil tank on e-bay and connected all the hoses again and on the initial start everything seemed to be ok then it felt like it was starving for air?? full throttle and just barely over a idle. then it died and will start again but then just dies...hmmmmmm any ideas guys is there a adjustment on the oiler?? i guess back to the work bench for a little trouble shooting...again i would appreciate any suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeTour Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 how does the plug look? Maybe the thing just flooded out. snap a pic of the plug though and post it up... did you set the air screw to 2 1/2 and the the idle to just get it running about 1 1/2?

buddy111 Posted September 3, 2010 Author Share Posted September 3, 2010 the plug was wet and the adjustments were also correct....here is what i found may be the culprit...inside the carb on the intake side is a bushing that fits on the intake nozzle before sliding the carb on...mine has split in it...is it suppose to be like that or is suppose to be complete with split???? i think its sucking air from there but not for sure..let me know what you think i do appreciate the help buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
