Pw 80 running probelms

[DaSpenceman45]

I own a Pw 80 that stars and sometimes will go into gear and ride, but sometimes wen it starts and i give it gas it just shuts right off and it won't start or run w/out the choke completely on...wen u take it off it just shuts off...we think its the carb but we have done everything we could 2 clean it out and we don't kno wut 2 do ne more.....

buy a new carb, thats what I did. Took me about 20 minutes to install it, and I have never worked on a motor cycle before. It was like $70 new with tax at the dealer. Well worth the hassle. Mine now runs like a top, had to adjust the idle, and runs great!

i think you messed something up in the carb because i cleaned my carb and had the same problem and later found out that i put it together wrong
