This orifice must be open to feed gas into the bystarter well. If not open, you have no fuel flowing into the enrichment circuit controlled by the bystarter. This is NOT the pilot jet. That orifice opens into the carb throat adjacent to the main jet needle.... :hi: ...My best luck has always been carb-dipping(and soaking) into a product called Berrymans cleaner. The spray cans don't have the same effect, but are very effective in testing the flow of orifices once you get them open. Jet cleaners are only about $10 for a set that will fit the tiniest of holes, instead of guitar string.... :urban: ....g'luck

Trafficjamz you were right I didnt press the brake to E-start it .I just tried it and now I know its not my stater. Now it will only run for 15second if I choke it and then put the air box back on the carb. After 15 second it died . Any other suggestions what should I do .I think no gas is flowing to the engine . Thanks all

gas should not flow from the petcock unless vacuum is applied. But if fuel is flowing to the carb. Unscrew the float bowl drain screw and see if fuel flows out.

That's because you have the restricted SA50P model, it does not have one. The SA50 has a split cable.

If you de-restrict it or if it is already de-restricted you should zip tie it open.
