    Wont start.

    I just installed a new throttle/oil pump cable and choke cable on my Yt175 and i cannot get it to start. It fires when i put some gas in the cylinder. It was sitting for about 4 months i think. Would the gas have clogged up the float by then? Should i clean the carb?

    I had it running a few months ago for about 5 minutes.

    Try it with the gas cap off----

    If not there is a screen on the petcock and Clean the carb.
    Buy American! Unless your only option is a HARLEY.

    A customer walked in to my shop and Impatiently stated "My car doesnt start, Whats the problem?"I responded with a smile-"Yep that sounds like your problem alright"----

    yeppers be careful when you take it off so you dont snap it. if thats not pluged up then put fresh gas in and clean the carb out.
