the engine is a force 12

turn your idle screw in, it should be atleast 1mm open. when you close the throttle the valve will shut letting no air through and stalling the motor. The screw is next to the arm that controls the throttle (should be a flat head screw i think)

Just hold the brake on and screw it in until it's open minimum 1mm, adjust more if required.

thanks i screwed it right in and it was about 1mm open but when i let the brake off it opens up to about 1/4 throttle

well it runs for about 5 seconds now until the pressure is gone from the tank ive put new glow plug in it and changed the exhust adjusted the needle settings and pressure tested all the lines and tank to no avial for the time iut runs it runs sweet

well i went to my lhs and they only sell them not fix them but we rang the ppl who distibute them in australia and had a chat to him his verdict was the carby was blocked so i went home flushed the carby changed the fuel lines then played with the neddle setting and evuntully "after a little bit of frustration " vrooom!! the little baby roared back to life and i,m back on the road again thanks to the guys who took the time to offer there help its greatly appretiated
