Engine revs don't climb past 2nd gear
-
Put in the general section as this is not a dt it's an am6 engine 1st and 2nd are fine after that the revs die right down and literally idles along at about 5mph
-
Is that the 50cc minarelli engine?
Should be in the technical engine zone mind you.
What's the compression like.
-
@Calum sorry but yeah it is and it's got a new top end I'm replacing it with a dtr engine hopefully but I would love to know the issue compression is great reeds look good runs good other than an oil leak
-
@Calum seems to go pretty good on a crate with the rear wheel in the air

-
Yeah but there isn't any load on the engine so it's not a fair test.
It could be a multitude of things, from bad ignition to bad fuel.
If the compression is good then it could be losing power through either the transmission or clutch.

@Calum the clutch isn't great and you have to redline to start moving
