[lmaslinderbi0...]

Please anyone help!! Lol I Got my derbi senda 50 2003 in august last year. when i got it my it had a new engine fitted new carb nd was basically rebuilt. it run fine for about 3 months and then it started playin up when starting. i have a good spark. plenty of fuel. clean carb. new bat ( wld tht make a diffrence because its kick start?) good compression. Engine had new piston and rings when it was replaced. starts perfect when its warm. no Choke which i find strange cld this be my Problem?? cheers :/ oh also it somtimes idles a bit slow.

[P.]

adjust the idle speed by using the idle screw on the carb.
warm, the bike should start with no choke anyway..
cold, the bike should use choke.. and having a low idle speed might be a cause of it cutting out/ not starting too well.
