I bought my bike a few weeks ago and it ran 100%, i then bought new 2 stroke (liqui molly). I basically said fuck it and through the whole lot of it i the 2 stroke reservoir under the seat.

The bike had little fuel and old stroke already in it.

The bike now only starts and tics over for a few seconds and dies.

The exhaust is shooting all kinds of reek out.

and the spark plug is wet.

I think ive some how flooded the bike with too much 2 stroke

so a solution on how to either flush out whats in the carb/engine?

or will adding more fuel dilute the 2 stroke and run ok ?

cheers Andy

The amount of oil you put in wont make a differance as its fed to the carb via a pump.
When you say little fuel i presume you mean in the fuel tank not the oil tank Shocked , you have got enough fuel in the tank havent you?

Yeah in the fuel tank lol, well it was quite low when i put the new 2 stroke in, i recently put more fuel in it and it started and began to tic over for short periods of time and then it would cut out Sad

A family friend said that it sounded like it was running rich, and to drain the fuel out, but i dont see how it could have flooded due to the fact that it is a pump system after all :S

Hmmm. Oil pump settings all correct? Didn't stall out after a ride prior to this?

Mileage and when was the topend last done?

Welcome to the worl of italian 2 smokers Wink , would be worth getting a compression tester too, also check if there is any fuel leaking from the carb, mine does this now and again when the float sticks, a good knock sorts it.
