Gday everyone out there im new to this and i need some help i bought a pocket bike of some guy for 175 bucks the guy said that it only had 5 hours run time on it and i brought it back home and i decided to ive it a hit put some fuel in it and started it up and it ran fine but i noticed a leak from the carby and i thought the float was gone in it but it was fine and i noticed the fuel shut of switch diddnt have a gasket on it is and i bou some cork/ rubber material for it and it stoped the leak but i noticed it coming from the float chamber but it wasnt as bad and now every time i start the bike it just revs the guts out of itself also the chain fell of when i was riding it and then i tightend the wheel up and now when i ride it it has a bad speed wobble from so i flipped it and the tyre was at an angle is there some thing that it have done when i tightend the chain?????

woahhh lets pump the brakes here lol too much going on in that paragraph.

as for the fuel overflow you just have some shit caught in the carb needle. take the bottom of the carby off and THOROUGHLY (dont just blow through it wash the thing out with petrol) clean the needle and jet the float connects to.

change all the fuel lines for good car type and get a BZM fuel filter and fuel tap then drill through the crappy stock one.

now as for the chain check that its properly alligned with the front sprocket. that is the main reason itll come off aside from being too tight. you can tension them up pretty tight seeing as though they dont have any suspension etc.

dont know what you mean by the last part but try put up some pictures of it.

if its a 2 stroke 49cc air cooled, u should of mixed 25:1 fuel:2stroke oil, if u dont do this, your bike wont run soon. always do this. as for the woobles, take the wheels off, take and fit them up again urself. then use a leveler like the builders use and make sure its level along the side. thats as much as i can help so far, i dont even have my bike yet, lol should arrive 2day. i hope so anyway glen :P

ahh whats this about using a sprit level? and as for the fuel mix 25:1 is for breaking it in i think u can use 35:1 40:1

[Luke_Ward]

but its have 5 hours running time already, trust me, that works quite well with the spirit leveler, mate uses it, and its a smooth ride, always does it whenever he changes his tyres

thanks guys for the post backs the frame was bent heaps and i think im going to have to reinforce the frame cause i fixed it and then i got back on it and after a good floggin on it and a few bumps the rear wheel was hitting the exaust pipe is it cause its crappy or cause its made for kids? and as for the fuel mixture i was using about a 30:1 ratio and i found out that its a 50:1 is that a prob or is it ok?

i aggree with luke on the level thing.Works great.You think its straight untill up put the level on.Once its straight you have a smooth running chain,and no wear marks on the sides of the rear sprocket.GOOD TIP.
Cheers

use 25:1 or 32:1 at the leanest. 50:1 = fried engine.
