PZ27/Shineray 200GY: Bikes starts on Carb cleaner, stays running. Won't start on gas
As the subject line reads, I have a PZ27 carb on a Shineray 200GY. It won't start, pop, or fart on just gas. Give it a small spray on carb cleaner and it starts AND stays running. I thought it was not getting gas... but it stays running and the bowl is full of gas (loosened the drain plug). Not sure of the jetting, clip is in the middle. What am I missing. Carb was a new Amazon POS for 20 bucks.
Would you recommend going for a PZ30?Is the air fuel mix screw actually accessible on this model? |

Yes to the PZ30, but also my guess is that you have a plugged/undersized pilot jet (leaning towards plugged). Pull it, verify it's clean, and then run it, once everything is properly adjusted.

I will pull it off and check this weekend when it gets above freezing here (Nodak finally got a taste of winter. They shut down the interstate for a night/day) |

Finally got it apart (Winter has come and gone). Cleaned the jets, took it all apart. New fuel line, new filter. Starts and runs great again. Now I can't find the damn rubber piece between the carb and the airbox. The search goes on
