Enticer 300.

I just picked up a vintage ride. Cleaned the carbs and serviced the unit. It seemed to run really well off the start(first 2 days); however now once it warms up it bogs and will hardly pull itself. I can remove the mag side spark plug cap with no change to the way it runs, however if I remove the PTO side it dies. I am suspecting a mag side crank seal; however wanted to ask if I was going down the right road with my train of thought.

The unit has plenty of spark, and new plugs do not help the one cylinder running symptom.

Have you done a compression test on that cylinder?

 

[apexltxgt11]

yes 100 psi in both.

K I don't know much about the older sleds but maybe you have a problem with an adjustment on your mag side carb. How do the plugs look? Is the one thats not firing wet? Or lean looking?

 

[apexltxgt11]

It's a single carb. It does appear wet. If I swap the plug and cap between cylinders the pto side runs. I'm ruling out fuel issue or electrical I think

Coil or weak stator.

 

[apexltxgt11]

Coil is new. Unsure about condition of the stator

Pulled the recoil off. Found its oily behind the flywheel. Crank seal it is
