Title: KFX 50 won't stay running Post by: qt314nfla on February 21, 2007, 07:02:20 PM My neighbor just bought a KFX 50 for her son. Bike is used and pull start. Has new spark plug and actually did start while I was there. However, the bike will not stay running like it doesn't have enough gas. I recommended pulling carburator off and cleaning as well as draining gas tank and replacing w/ fresh gas. I have been unable to locate a manual on this and have no knowledge of these little bikes so I was unable to find an air box if it has one.
Any suggestions? Does anyone have a manual? Title: Re: KFX 50 won't stay running Post by: qt314nfla on February 21, 2007, 08:27:46 PM anyone? any suggestions? am i correct or am i missing something?
