Troubleshooting <strong>Typhoon</strong> <strong>50</strong><br />

Possible Cause<br />

Defective spark plug or with incorrect electrode gap<br />

Intake joint cracked or with a bad seal<br />

Purifier-carburettor fitting damaged<br />

Operation<br />

Remove the encrustation, restore the plug gap or replace being<br />

sure to use the types of spark plug recommended at all times.<br />

Bear in mind that many problems engines have, derive from<br />

the use of the wrong spark plug<br />

Replace the intake joint and check its tightness on the crankcase<br />

and on the carburettor<br />

Replace<br />

Excessive oil consumption/Exhaust smoke<br />

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION/SMOKEY EXHAUST<br />

Possible Cause<br />

Operation<br />

Excess of encrustations in the combustion chamber<br />

Remove the encrustations<br />

Engine tends to cut-off at full throttle<br />

<strong>EN</strong>GINE STOP FULL THROTTLE<br />

Possible Cause<br />

Operation<br />

Maximum nozzle dirty - lean mixture<br />

Wash the nozzle with solvent and dry with compressed air<br />

Dirty carburettor<br />

Wash the carburettor with solvent and dry with compressed air<br />

Water in the carburettor<br />

Operation<br />

Secondary metal air pipe deteriorated<br />

Check the seal of the piping on the crankcase and on the housing,<br />

check the piping between the housing and the muffler.<br />
