What kind of noises, what kind of oil, when does it happen, pics of your clutch maybe too.

This post sounds strangely familiar. didn't this happen to some other person and it ended up being the clutch was jacked up?

What do you mean 'I don't know if its because I fell of my mini bike or something'

id take the clutch off if i were you, and just manually operate the throttle to see if it is really the engine, then if that checked out, id inspect the clutch for damage. ML-TOYS is probably on to something, and just to second what he is saying....

the best thing you can do for us is take some pictures and upload them, then maybe a video of it having the problem would be even better if you could.

if it's sounding almost like grinding of a brake drum grinding KartFab would be right. i had a homebuilt that had a 'el cheapo clutch on it and it would grind at low idle, and even catch just enough to budge the wheels. what it'd do is take the clutch apart if you can and wire brush it. it usually works for me.
