okay so i was out sunday and i was riding for about 3 hours.
in the last half hour or so my bike began to stall....alot.
anf after it would stall i could just not get it kick started i had to push start it. so when i got home and put it in my garage i had just let it sit tilll the next day. on monday when i went out to start it it ran fine?
then yesterday when i went to start it it would not start again.
so it just will not start.
what could be some problems?
how could i trouble shoot it?

I would check the spark plug first.

i have already done this, it is fine.
it also is also getting fuel to the spark plug.

Does "it is fine" mean you've replaced it with a new plug? If not your wasting your time going any further until you do so. Sounds exactly like a fouled plug to me.

You can adjust the idle if you like, most racing two strokes are set so they don't idle more than a few seconds before they die.
