Any one worked knows a fair bit on a quadzilla quad

[angellonewolf]

They are electric choke, it is an excess fuel type, open until alternator power heats an element, closing the excess fuel needle valve via a thermostat. I can never weigh up why people take the oil lines off and make them work on Peteroil. If that engine is the standard Chinese/Taiwanese Minarelli two stroke, the oil pump is quite clever and has a second cable from the throttle lever to it to meter oil flow with throttle opening.

yes its got the cable im only going on what i know playing with mini motos my sons 4 stroke moped (ended up with a full bottem end more)and years ago with 2 strokes 50cc 125 and the yam 250 tzr i had for 10 years

as all the ideas given me a few ideas to go through ammgoijg to give a try with original con fig using oil and fuel with make shift feeders

cheak as best as can for leaks

and keep searching for a carb any bodly got an idea on where to get another had an emailfrom the scooter seller on ebay even though they sell the part they cant confirm it will fit the quad

Are you sure the float bowl valve mechanism went back in the right way? Not worked on this specific one but I know on others there is an easy bit to get wrong.

Also check for in-line fuel filters (ie a bit of steel wool in the delivery/pick up tube)

Crap pieces of equipment. Better off in a scrap heap.

When buying Quad parts you are in shark infested waters. 90% of the time a part costing £50 is made in the same factory for the same price as a £5 one, it is just the greedy re-seller rightly thinks you are likely to go for the higher cost one. Trouble is the other 10% which may be parts of a lot better quality. How do you tell them apart? You can't. Only thing is, don't get stung by the same rip off merchant twice.

^^^^^^^i agree would not put a china rubish on my sthil stimmer i would just service it with geniune parts

but they can get you out of a hole i dont want to spend £50 quid to try it to find its not the problem as its looks the same/work to tell me it might tell me its the carb or if it runs they get a summer out of it

if after that point they want spend the £50 to put a better more reliable one on they can in confidence knowing it will work the problem is the extra pipe i dont know what it does yes looks like an over flow if it is when it turns up ican extend it passed the head as to not cause a fire if it leaks

i got a sovereign hedge trimmer had it for free n a bunch of stuff got it working fairly not great but done me good for a couple years clean the carb a few times but was never right done all the normal suspects plug air filter etc looked for a new carb was about 36 quid for a genuine replacement more than just buyiing a good 2nd hand one .
looking bay of thives there was a copy one for 17 quid of the genuine one and after a bit of searching found a genric one you just have to measure the ports and bolt holes right and i got one of them for £8 inc a spare bulb and fuel pipe and just a stop gap installed been on there now for 2 years still ok not the best but near as good as the new original

still got a few thing to try as not got to it yet but this might be a backup plan

 

[angellonewolf]

ok bit of an update final found a new carb and fitted and not made any differance still started fine but will not move when you pull the throttle it bogs and near dies

ive bought a compression tester as i found a sealey one for £18 quid and wanted one for quite a while (all ready got one but only a push in one not a screw one and this will bee a flex lead on it as the quad unless remove the engne i could not use my old one )

any one have an idea on what copresson i should be lookng for ?

Have you checked the valve clearance? Assuming 4 stroke?

 

[angellonewolf]

no its a 2 stroke

 

[Brad93]

Quadzilla aren't really known for their reliability.

Either your new carb has the wrong size main jet, your compression or timing is out, or there’s an issue with the exhaust.

Have you check the reed valve?

 

[angellonewolf]

the carb is the right one for the bike so say should only need minor ajustment

im wating for the compression tester at the moment should tell me somethng

on the old carb i played with a lot of the settngs of the mixture all did seam to do nothng to inprove or funnly enought did not make it worse screw for the air all way in or out did not even seam to make any differance to the bike at all what was suprising

 

[Wightsparks]

Have you checked for bird/rodent nests in the exhaust?

 

[angellonewolf]

will cheak on this have not seen one on this as of yet but will look a bit closer on this the carb attaches on to a plastic there does not seam to have that much space to have a reed in there but need to have a look thanks for the idea

there was so say was told a mouse was seen coming out there now thats a thought but when running theres smoke out the back of the bike so i assume its not blocked but another thing to add on the list

 

[stuvy]

It sounds like an air leak still reseal all the inlet gaskets with silicone rtv

The reed valve sits in a plastic housing inside the engine block usually pointing downwards slightly.

If the reed is fubar then it won’t make any power
