    Bad trigger? Can’t adjust timing

Which when I did a spark test I had spark in all cylinders. Also stator looks to be new. At least from what I can tell So trigger is prob good? so I should...

    Bad trigger? Can’t adjust timing

    It does look like it’s about 4 dgr btdc. I can give it gas once it’s warmed up and it would either die as it comes off gas or just keep running like nothing wrong or it would pop then die right after. Also I saw you said something about magneto. My magneto doesn’t work currently bought a new...

    Force 125 88’ won’t run

    Update. I got some water muffs but they don’t seem to really work or maybe I got the wrong kind the one the owner left was like a circle these are square. Anyway I’m saying it doesn’t work cuz the overheating buzzer came on and it was super hot. Shut off the same time the buzzer came on...

    Force 125 88’ won’t run

    Ok so try to get idle around 1200 with water muffs does it matter if it’s in gear or not? And to do that I should do lync and sync again. And for the mixture screw if I turn it more then about 2 or more turns it won’t start. Also the way it is set right now I can easily light the black tab on...

    I did what @topgun3690 said to screw idle screw in till lightly seated then out 1-1/4 they are both set to that. But the lower carb screw is very messed up. I have the picture in here somewhere. So I should by water muffs and time it at full throttle at 30d. While it’s on right. My only problem...

And I’m assuming you mean in gear but at the minimum speed rpms And ya I did mix you up with racerone sorry I was just looking at previous threads and saw your name...

    Force 125 88’ won’t run
