2002 pw80 hard start won't run

this is a pw80 that is very hard starting and won't idle long if at all,
when it does as soon as u give it throttle it dies.

Sounds like air’s escaping through somewhere

It was the top end along with the main bearing going out, also carb was leaking gas and a few different air leaks. All that and it still ran! We rode the hell outta that thing couldn't get it to die well made machines!

Sorry buddy you need a top end

[@dirtheads108]

Yes that was part of the problem

Mine was a 1999 and it still started first kick😂

[@dirtheads108]

So does mine when it's got a new top end.🤣
