Recently bought a pocketbike that runs fine for 15-20 mins then quits? :confused: I replaced the sparkplug & it seems a little better.Maybe the carb needs to be adjusted or upgraded? Any fellow pocketbikers have any ideas would be appreciated.Thanks.

is it over heating?? check to make sure your air filter has no obstructions blocking air flow.

Yes i just cleaned the stock (cheesy )air filter.How do you know if it is too hot? And being air-cooled is there any way to solve it?Thanks alot.

after a while it will sometimes crack, melt((any near plastic) smoke, its hard to tell but you'll know when it happens, but this sounds like what is happening
