    Question problem with trike

    i have a 82 honda atc 200 when i will choke the carb it will shoot a stream of gas out of the carb and it will start running out of the two little vent things in the front of the carb and it will run out of the overflow hose the bike has been sitting for a while so i cleaned out the tank and got a bunch of junk out from that and after i did that it still flooded and shot fuel out the vents inside the carb anything will help

    hey, check the valve lash, sounds like the intake valve isn't closing all the way.
    one cylinder is not enough!!

    yes i did clean the floats and that but what is weird is that it will run sometimes if you give it a squirt of ether and it will run good but then if you shut it off it wont restart

    Make sure it is getting air, gas, and spark. So clean the airfilter, make sure the petcock isn't clogged, and get a new plug.

    yes!

    i cant believe someone would actually say "its 180 off"

    since when do thse motors magically get themselves 180 off by sitting for a while
