How would I go about checking that. I think I read somewhere to spray it with WD-40 and see if it bubbles? If I found a leak would I just need some new gaskets?

It doesn't run at all anymore, that's the problem. It slowly started taking many pulls to get going and now it won't start at all.

No, but when it was new it did. I think it did a few days ago when I tried to get it running, but it took too many pulls untill I noticed a difference in the sound.

I'm not quite sure what you mean by pop. It's just a little rough to pull, pretty much the same as when it did work.

Pictures are here. Sorry about the crap quality but it was really cold and I just wanted to get back inside, haha. I hope these pictures are okay... It came with that pull start but I put it on my other bike to see if that one would start. bottom bottom again left side right side I...

Well that's not my engine, I just found it on google images. I'll run to my grage to snap a few pics real quick, but it's freezing outside. Pictures should be up in 20mins.

That little peice circled in an abundance of colours. When I start it would be in that position.

I think it's what lets the gass pass, sort of like a ball valve. I'll try and fins a picture.

I flip the choke switch upwards, I make sure the white flange is vertical, and I pull(a lot). After a few pulls I will give it a little bit of gas. Is this the correct way to start a cold bike?

I bought an NGK plug for $8.00 and it doesn't seem to help. What would the procedure be for cleaning out the Carb and induction system?

Go to a Bicycle shop. They should sell you any cable lengths up to 100" for around $7.00.

Okay, I'll give it a try. Shop opens on Monday so I'll post then with an update. Thanks.

Do you think that would be the only problem? I want to try and eliminate all the problems as quickly as possible.

I flip the little choke switch to the up position, the white nob is verticle, and I pull nearly 100 times for almost 15minutes untill I give up and go inside to eat a cookie. The problem with money in my situation is I have too many expensive hobbies; competitively race bikes(around 5000$ a...

I was using 25/1 when I started noticing it took a few more pulls, I switched to 50/1 around when it took 20-30 pulls to get it started. Are you saying I should clean all the gaskets from oil and stuff? I'm not very good with engines...

Yes, I bought it new. The person that sold it to me told me to run it at 25/1 for the first week, and then change to a 50/1. And I'm not quite sure what you mean by induction system... EDIT: The warranty was only two weeks, it's now expired.

I wasn't sure if this should go into Off Topic because it's not homemade, but w/e.:sifone: A few weeks ago I went out and bought a Jazz mini dirt bike to play around with. It started having problems about a week in, (it took a LOT more pulls to get it started) and eventually it wouldn't start...

That's right children! Pedo-Bear is related to Chewbacca, you know what that means... I just realized this thread got de-railed.

... mutant pedo-children will come about...

But hair waxing with Duct Tape, amazing... As for extra Bling, you can always set up that front wheel with a DeeMaxx wheel and some Fox 40's. Assuming that no one here bikes, I'll post what I mean. in picture form...http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/2515357/ Front wheel and front suspension from my...
