Got it running
Ok. I decided to just a get a new wiring harness from gokartsru. After wiring it up the buggy started right up! I mean turned the key and it was running. But if I gave it gas it would die. I thought it must be a dirty carb so I just replaced it with a new one. This made no difference so I then replaced the cdi, coil, all fuel and vacuum lines, petcock, fuel filter, voltage regulator, spark plug and cheked gap and adjusted the valve clearance with no change.
It's as if the motor is not getting air when opening the throttle. The plug turns black pretty fast so I'm guessing it's getting plenty of fuel. Before it would die when opening the throttle to full but after turning the carb screw 1 1/2 turns out from closed it now stays running but does not rev much higher than idle.
What am I missing? Is there another place I could have a vacuum leak that would cause this?
