After it ran out of gas i got it started but now it
runs very poorly.
I removed the air filter and the box that it sits
in is coated with oil.
The person that was riding it said that when it ran
out of gas it went 'putt putt putt' and then stopped
abruptley. I am guessing that it has suffered two
problems at once. Maybe the timing chain jumped
a tooth or something, any ideas?
There is air 'puffing' from the air intake and smoke
coming from both the tailpipe and the air intake
(or at least the box that the air filter is contained
in if that what this thing is called).
Please help.
Regards,
Joe
