    i took the cyclinder head and cylinder (polini 70cc) off because i had to change the exhaust studs..i put it all back on inc exhaust and started it up

    i let it run for a min or two and then drove it up the road and back, it was feeling kinda slow and sluggish. a minute later it cut out on me and wont start again.

    any ideas?

    It could only be Fuel, compression or spark.

    is the fuel old?

    Is there compression?

    *UPDATE*

    ok i changed the spark plug and it gradually started for a bit and then it cut out. it now wont start again, everytime i kick it the oil and petroel light on the dash keep flashing on and off.

    i dnt get it though coz the petroel is going fru i can see it in the fuel hoze.

    minor what cud it be lol

    Take the plug out put ur finger over the hole and check if there is good compresion. Try different cdi. Once the bike started was the plug wet when u got it out?. Try different carb.

    could be the choke not working. Slightly block the end of the air filter as you try it. This will richen the mixture and it will fire if its the choke playing up
