Hello,
I picked up a dingo for my 11 and 9 year olds to use. Seems to be in pretty good shape, other than it won't run!
It was running ok but sometimes wanted to die when giving the engine some throttle. It died when running and now won't start at all. I took the air cleaner off, dumped some gas in the carb and it fired but died soon after.
Given that I'm guessing it a carb related fuel issue. I tried pulling the carb off but got a bit stumped as i didn't want to tear everything apart on this new to us machine. I did think it sounded like the engine has some piston slap as well.
Given all that, thoughts on replacing with a predator 212? I see them at harbor freight for 99. Any reason to not buy from there vs other places that are more $?
Any thoughts/help would be greatly appreciated!
