[MrRcFan]

heyy umm can u help me i lost my pocket bike keyyy soo now how can i start it

[polishboy17]

@MrRcFan well thats not a problem but first, you know where you put your key to start it, you gotta lift it up with a screw driver or something with what u can lift it, and they youll see wires(black and red) you put them together and you should be able to start ur bike

my pocket bike has that same problem aswell, im not sure what type it is but it keeps leaking when i try start and every time i get it started it keeps turning off PLEASE HELP ME

[polishboy17]

@ckck1ck2andck3 my best advice i can give you is to take the carburator apart and give it a nice clean, and when starting it, avoid giving it gas , wich would lead to overflow (too much fuel in engine). Hope i helped

[archinuk417]

i just cleaned my carb yesterday and it leaks even more now.

[polishboy17]

@archinuk417 that sucks did you check all the ''vavles'' where the fuel passes trough?If theres no holes in it...?

[archinuk417]

@polishboy17 dude idk im kinda pissed off with this minibike. its been nothing but problems since day one so im just gonna take it in to get fixed

[1jack247]

awesome but how did u fix it i hav the same issue..leaking carb..i let it leak until theres no gas..i let it sit..for a day or 2..n started it up today works fine..reved it.. the carb isnt leaking yet..

[polishboy17]

@1jack247 I simply took out the carb out of the pocketbike and took it apart and gave it a nice good clean and works like a charm.

@polishboy17 i have a BRAND NEW HP carb and it's leaking like crazy(emptied half a tank on my GP MX3 in 20 mins) plz any help!!!!

[polishboy17]

@scbjgs are you sure you mounted it correctly,be sure you have the fuel thing that opens and closes the fuel that passes through the fuel lines. If you have it opened for a long time,theres an overflow bowl unter the carbwhere the fuel goes if theres too much fuel in the engine,and if theres an overflow, the fuel will keep leaking and leaking until you close the fuel thing oh the carb.Now pretty much what u gotta do is to take the carb apart and clean it.Seemes like alot of work but its worth it

[scbjgs]

@polishboy17 it's honestly THAT simple?

i feel like a dumbass.

thanks bro

[polishboy17]

@scbjgs lol no problem.

[MrB14ser]

a malfunctioning carb could cause the pocketbike to be difficult to start right?

[polishboy17]

@MrB14ser well i just fixed it . i realized that i didnt take of the carb or anything since i had the bike( 1 year ago) so i took it off gave it a good clean and it works mate :)

[polishboy17]

@MrB14ser oh ok i didnt understand ur question, yes indeed, a malfunctioning carb COULD cause the bike to start. You need 4 things in order to start a motor engine. 1.Compression. 2. Fuel 3. A certain amount of oxygene.. 4 . Of course a spark plug..

[SeGaSaTuRn1994]

its your float bowl strip carb and clean then rebuild

[polishboy17]

@SeGaSaTuRn1994 Thanks i just fixed it .

[Prototype152]

@SeGaSaTuRn1994 hey man i got the same problem with my 49cc scooter wondering if you can help me out? basically my carburetor leaks fuel, but does not stop, for me to stop it i have to block the hose or take it out and plug the hose, what should i do?

[polishboy17]

@Prototype152 hey , this video was posted like in march and 2 weeks after the video was posted i fixed it. Well i was wondering what could be the problem but finally,when i got the pocketbike, I didnt do any '' Check ups''.. Expet changing the spark plug.. So I decieded to take out the carb out for a clean up. I unscrewed every single part of the carb and cleaned in with some carb cleaner and sprayed it with air at the end (to blow out any remainning dirts), i put back the carb,and it worked:).

[Prototype152]

@polishboy17 ahh guess what man! i just took the carb off and air compressed it, i didn't think it was a good idea but it worked, ohh and i put way to much oil in the fuel mixture, because the carb was dripping black/oil, so the air got rid of that, just need to buy more fuel and ask my mum if i can ride it on the streets =D

[polishboy17]

@Prototype152 haha nice , basically you need to clean there carb every once in a while.. Check the spark plug too , once i had a problem that i couldnt start it up so i took everything apart ; carb, engine. Then when all hope was gone , i checked the spark plug and noticed the head was completely gone.. lol. So i bought a new spark plug and it worked like a charm.. So yeah, sometimes we try to look too far for answers when the solution isnt that far.. hahah good to know u fixed it.

[Prototype152]

@polishboy17 exactly!! haha always happens spend so much time on something to fix it when really its the most simplest thing, =)

[polishboy17]

@Prototype152 yeah hahah nice talking to you mate (=

[Prototype152]

@polishboy17 same to you =D

[SeGaSaTuRn1994]

@Prototype152 you need a new float bowl
