bigbadbertiebassett Posted August 1, 2013 Share Posted August 1, 2013 If it's a carb model it may be that the float is sticking allowing the carb to fill and then when the floats at the top gets stuck...........the fuel in the carb then burns away thus allowing you to drive for a while and then it cuts out........Im guessing the float then eventually drops. Be worth stripping the carb and cleaning all the jets out carefully and ensuring float dont stick, give the pin and floats a really good clean up with a bit of wire wool on the pin that holds the floats. Hope this sorts it, otherwise it may be onto the electrical system, and I have proven to be a bit crap with that ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
