Zenoah 38 Problems

Postby Steve McDonald » January 29th, 2017, 4:19 pm

I changed the carb diaphragm on my Z38 and cannot get it to run, it would appear to be flooding the engine. When I remove the spark plug fuel pours out, I dry the plug off and it fires and starts but won't run for long and will not restart without the same rigmarole again. Not aware of doing anything wrong when changing the diaphragm. Any pointers or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Did you ensure the pin groove on the diaphragm is in the fork . I'm guessing its on top

Also make sure the gasket goes on the carb first then the diaphragm then the cover.

Cheers,
Dave.
