So I've done several bike kits, both 2 stroke and 4 stroke, and generally have no issues getting them to run. However, I just finished my most recent build, had it running twice, but now face a new issue I haven't dealt with yet. The stock NT carburetor was the initial problem as it was getting too much fuel flow, causing it to leak fuel out the air filter. I checked my throttle assembly and everything was sitting correctly and moving freely when twisting the throttle.
So to fix the issue of the fuel leak, I ordered an upgraded carb from Amazon, made by MaySpare, but after it took fuel once and rode smoothly for two miles, it no longer wanted to draw fuel. I opened the carb up, no cracks in the float, no dirt inside it, but can't get fuel to flow. Bowl doesn't even fully empty out, but yet I can't get the engine to fire. It'll crank, attempt to fire over, but bogs down and dies. I'm at a complete loss cause this isn't something I've had an issue with before. Any ideas? I checked similar posts, but those with the same issue never reported back as to if it ever got fixed.
