Question

i have an roketa 150 go kart that will start and idle fine but when i give it any gas it dies. I also just had it serviced where they claened the carburator and rode it for about a minute then shut it off and resarted it and died when i gave it gas. if anyone has any ideas to what might be causing this problem please repond.

Answer 1

Definitly sounds like a fuel problem, especially when it worked briefly after cleaning the carb.

Check to make sure the tank is clean and you have a fuel filter on.

If that fails, I think the carb needs to be cleaned again, somethign may have cuased it to plug up on the high speed jets again.
