Gents, I need some suggestions to try and fix my issue, as I'm stumped right now. I have the XT, stock motor with a jetpro side mount and the baja air filter. I'm running a walboro 990 with inclined shredstack with the ada teflon gaskets. I have also vented the tank, and am running a Killer Bee.
The issue started a few days ago where I was running around the track great and about 15 minutes in, the motor bogged out and stalled, now I can not get it running again. I took apart the carb, cleaned it all out and reset the needles then reinstalled - still won't start. Switched to a new 668 and it still won't start.
I am getting a nice blue spark and the plug is coming out wet after yanking the pull start a dozen times. The motor doesn't even sound like it wants to start!
Now, I did install a new cylinder base gasket about 3 or 4 weeks ago and I have about 3 tanks through since the new gasket was installed. It still looks like it is in good shape.
I figure I'll be pulling the head off tonight to inspect the piston and cylinder walls to make sure they're in decent shape.
Any suggestions to try or to look for so I can get up and running again?
Thanks
