Get a carb off a air cooled 250r that runs great and try it on yours, or try getting a carb rebuild kit.

the carb looked good jets clean etc. but it did run a lil better but still dies on me
i mean it ran good for bout 1 min then its almost like you cut the fuel off ,i can pump the throttle and finally it will start back up and then it will do it all over again
dont know if changing the carb will do the trick

I had that problem on a odyssey when I bought it. The air screw was turned all the way in. I backed it out 1 1/2 turns and it was cured.:headbang:

I had the same problem with my 200M and after pulling out hair and grinding my teeth I started at one end and went to the other. I found out that My gas cap air intake was plugged with a bit os dirt and stopped letting in the air. After cleaning it all out it ran like a new one. :D
Good Luck and dont:fire: :fire: just yet
