Hi, Thanks to all who replied, I got the bike going today and it seems to be ok.Gas Gas UK recommended only putting 50ml of oil in 5ltrs of fuel, and setting the air screw at 2 3/4 turns out. Will give it a good blast at the weekend to blow all the muck out.

Hi, Thanks a lot, I will give it another try using your suggested method.

Hi,Thanks a lot for your reply.Unfortunatly things have got worse, it wont start at all now. I took the reed block / carb manifold off today and checked the rubber for splits, all was ok. I have tried 3 different plugs and cleaned up any electrical connectors I could find,Im sure it must be the carb, I started it yesterday and messed arounnd with the mixture screw to try and get it running better, but have messed it up. I dont know what to do now, does anyone else have any ideas that i can try? thanks.

Hi,When my sons 50 boy is warm I cant start it again when the engine stops. I have cleaned out the carb and there is a good spark.It use to start fine, I have messed about with the mixture but that hasnt helped ( does anyone know the correct settings for the mixture screw )i would be very grateful for any advice.
