Hello everyone. This is a Go Cart and not a typical "ATV" but it has an engine so I'm hoping someone can help me. It's a Helix FTX with a Manco 150cc engine. The engine will start and idle for awhile, but will not take even a small touch of throttle. Stalls. It seems to take throttle and rev up when you first start it cold, but in just a minute, it will not take any throttle. I've replaced the Fuel valve/Pump on the fuel tank with no joy. It's a nice little cart, but without a workable engine, it's a boat anchor. I'm not dumb when it comes to small engines, but this one has me stumped. I'm running out of options.
I'll mention that while it is idling, it will sort of "cough" every 6 or 8 seconds and then recover and idle again. Eventually one of those "coughs" causes it to stall. It will start back up pretty easily, but as I said, it absolutely will not take any throttle and then it will cough and stall a minute later. I thought it could be timing, but there is no "adjustment" for timing on this engine. I downloaded the user manual and it mentions nothing about timing and is pretty much useless as a service guide. It just shows the basics. I'm attaching the manual so you can get an idea of the machine I'm dealing with.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Don

I've had this for probably 15 years. It ran great till 4-5 years ago, mainly riding the grandkids around our fields, till it wouldn't start. It sat for a couple of years till I bought a new battery, but couldn't get it to even hit, so rebuilt the carb, put on a new fuel pump, but no go, so it's sat. Several days ago, charged battery, cranked over and it started??? OK, idles good, but won't rev up, so emptied gas tank, flushed out and filled w/good 93 octane, pulled pump line from carb and have good full line of fuel cranking over. New spark plug, good spark, old one black BAD! Oil change, adjusted valves, no difference. Pulled carb and took apart and cleaned, didn't find any clogs or crusted up inside. Now I've had the carb back off probably 6 times checking, double checking anything I can think of. No gas blowing back in air box. It idles good, can increase throttle up some then starts popping and dropping rpms off and if I don't let off the throttle, it'll die. I've read for 3 days now MECHs and RANDY walking several thru tracing the same problem, tried MOST of the direction given. ??? -

I have a 1985 Suzuki lt230ge with electric start. It has a keyed ignition. The key, once inserted will move to two positions. There is a button on the left handlebar to engage the starter... so what do the two key positions do. Anyone know???? I am looking forward to getting to enjoy this machine but I can't find a lot of info online about such a classic ATV. Thanks in advance for any advice!!
