This is regarding a Comer 50 cc goakrt engine, apparently a piston port setup.
-i know it has spark
-it has enough compression to push my finger out of the way when I cover the spark plug hole, pushing as hard as I can while pulling the string
-if I spray starter fluid in the intake, it will cough
low-carb jet and emulsion tube are clear, compressed air passes through and the carb is NEW
-dellorto 1412 baby flat slide carb
BUT
It never seems to pull enough air through the intake (none so far as I can tell) to get the gas to flow out of the float bowl and into the carb throat.
I know very little about actually working on 2 strokes. It's weird to me that I can't get any kind of vacuum signal at the intake manifold but it has compression.
Is the crank seal totally gone?
Before y'all get all "why isn't this a motorcycle" shush. I could put it in a bike frame. It happens to be in a race kart my kiddo was given and he badly wants to go faster than his now too small power wheels will go.
