No idea myself, but possibly kickstart can help you.

wat i mean by sticks is that it will not rev past 7k so i lose a hell of alot of power i have just been told that i have no snorkle for air intake could this be the problum?

[Kickstart]

Hi

If the snorkel is missing it might have some effect (they are shaped to smooth the air flow into the airbox, so although removing it might make the hole bigger it actually can flow less air)., I would really doubt it would limit the engine to 7000rpm.

I presume the exhaust has been rerestricted?

Is it a very firm limit of 7000rpm, or will it go higher it lower gears or not reach that high in the higher gears?

If it stops pretty much dead at 7000rpm in any gear then it is probably an electrical problem, or possibly ignition timing.

If it can be persuaded past there in, say, first, then more likely to be a fueling problem or a mechanical problem.

All the best
