Heads up on stike master not starting


jig n' jerk

Recommended Posts

I was getting my mag 2000 going for the season when I could not get it to start. This is the first year I stored it dry( don't know if this hurt or not). I figured after not getting it to start for the first twenty pulls that that was not the way to store it. I finally got it to sart after the initial twenty pulls but it would start and then die shortly after. After pulling the tank/ filter assembly off of the carb. I noticed there was no adjustments on the carbs. So i scratched my head for a while and finally came up with an idea. It seamed like the engine was starving for gas. Long story short make sure to check the four screw on both sides of the carb. All of these screws ended up needing to to be tightened. There is a fuel diaphram in there that pumps the fuel into the carb. So if the screws are loose the fuel pressure is lost( took a while to figure out since there was no fuel leaking from either of the plates). After tightening the screws it ran like brand new. I figured I would let all you strike master owners know since this took a while to figure out what the heck was going on!!!

thanks I didn't think of that I bought my mag 2000 this october so it is brand new and when its cold it take full chock and the throttle wide open and about 20-30 pull before it starts, but when it starts it runs like a champ, and when it is warmed up I can shut it off and it start with 1 pull then
