Have a Roketa AR20 - believe it's a 110 but adjustable throttle kid sized/
has been sitting a while- got a new battery=- went thru that routine - adding electrolytes- charging
replaced 2/3 of the fuel line that was cracked. took off the fuel filter- blew it out with air compressor- put it back- auto parts didn't have replacement.
today replaced spark plug.it had the original one from NANDA tried to adjust carburator fuel/air mixture- it will start sometimes but won't run longer than a minujte. of I put some starting fluid in plug hole - it did start but won't keep running-
I had tried to remove the air filter but the shroud is attached yto a rubber hose and clamped to the carb- the screw for the clamp is against the frame and a couple of inches below the gas tank- tried several tools but couldn't get to it.
I'd appreciate any ideas about how else to get the air cleaner off without dismantling the thing
also- I originally thought the fuel/air ratio screw was the idle screw -quick start book says to turn it 1 & 1/2 turns but I'm not sure that is accurate, and I haven't found the idle screw- can't find any diagrams. quick start says it's on top of carb under seat- but can't see it from there. any references?
just want to get it running to sell it for my daughter.
thanks in advance for any tips.
