Hi Guys I appreciate the input..Ill answer best I can Im running with exshaust and air filter. When starting I use choke but when it starts to bog down I try it with and without choke,,,no difference. On carb cleaning...I cleaned the carb thourly.I made sure every passage was blown out with carb cleaner as well as every jet. ethanol sucks lol petcock screen is clean ,,I used clear fuel line and new inline filter ( i use clear line so i can glance and see if im getting fuel to carb.) Im not sure about main jet bore size...It is possible I wonder with that in mind why sometimes it wont start at all ... Ill double check all this for sure ... you guys are great thank you

Hello All, I have a 1979 DT 175 I need help with..It has1800 origional miles..Heres situation. When I got It it had sat for quite awhile. So I Cleaned gas tank cleaned petcock rebuilt carb It had nice fat blue spark It started right up Idled for a bit when I started increasing rpm,s it started bogging out then finally die. It would start eratticaly a sometimess run for sveral minutes but always die.Sometimes id prime cylender with no avail. I figured it was the oil seals and so I did the following. Honed cylinder new rings new oil seals new gaskets thruout kick start spring tested coils under flywheel ( currently have fat blue spark) assembled engine with torque wrench Did a leak down test (it passed fine) New fuel new fuel line with inline filter After completion of above work..She fired right up Ideled nice increased rpm,s a 1/4 throttle twice.for a total runtime of several minutes..Went to increase rpm,s again..and it started bogging like it did when I got it. Im definetly missing the problem..If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate it.. Thank You

I agree ,,I purchached one and it couldnt handle the stress lol....I ended up making one with extra large bolts ...I used a 1/2 electric impact driver to tighten the puller ...it tighted up and stopped...I was amazed...while there was tension I heated with torch in a few that thing poped off sounded like a 22 snub nose ..lol I never seen one that tuff......Thanks for the help I appreciate it .

Hi All I have a stuck flywheel on my 175..I have tried tradional tactics to no avail. Ive use a puller ,lubrication and a propane torch..She isnt budging.Im removeing due to extensive rust inside flywheel are ..I thoudht this may have an impact on perfomance. When I got bike it would start intermitantly and attemp to rev up then just cut out but generally start again with same scenario.I rebuilt carb with no diffrence in performance. If anyone has a solution for flywheel as well as any opinions at all.I would surely appreciate it. Thanks
