  • p180 UG3 Cold starts and pick up problem

    So my P180 ug3 has very cold starts every time... I am never able to self start these days... always have to kick start and that too it takes like 8 kicks..... when started the rpm meter registers around 1300 revs but after about 15 mins it jums up to around 1600 or 1800 revs at idle... during those 15 mins the bike drives like it is out of petrol... the acceleration is very jerky... however when i hold the clutch and rev the engine its fine... only in gear is it jerky...

    this jerkiness temporarily disappears for a while....only to reappear say after 30 mins, the bike again starts to act like there is no petrol and again becomes jerky, again only in gear... while clutch is held acceleration is smooth.....

    Just got the carb cleaned yesterday so dunno what else could be the problem... Ideas?

      -Is the choke stuck or something??? Though youve gotten the carb cleaned, so that should not be the issue.

      -As suggested on another thread, check the fuel filter.

      - What is the level of engine oil? and the condition of the spark plug??
