engine won't throttle

[Guest]

hello

i have a honda 90 engine, and it start ok, however it cut out when the throttle is increase.

at first i thought it was the carb, so i clean it out and still had the same problem, so i thought that one was faulty so i brought a brand new one and i am still having the same problem.

i am now unsure of what the problem is and was wondering whether anyone has any suggestion of what i can try?

thanks

have you adjusted the air/fuel mix? sounds like it might be getting a bit too much of something

points ign or elctronic ? could be a few different things

hello thanks for the replies, the points are ign i think

what could be wrong with them and how do i check/fix them

[eastanglianbiker]

they are located behind the left hand engine casing if it has points they could be out of adjustment or pitted badly and need replacing to replace you will need to remove flywheel

i have had a look at the points and they look ok,

was just wondering if anyone can tell me what could be causing this problem

Also where about is the engine number located on the honda 90 engine

thanks

Not certian on this, but my bandit at one point did the same thing. Let it warm up (running onthe choke) for a few mins, then it should rev without stalling. It's a odd sensation.

When I turn on my engine in a morning, I turn the choke on full then start, if I touch the throttle much past 1/8 of a turn it will cut out. Maybe there's just too much cold air for the engine to sustain it's self when you touch the throttle?

Im not certian on this, but you'll be altering the fuel to air mix (I think) and that's what causes it to cut out, as your counter balancing the 'choke' effect, hence engine cut out...?
