My idle on Derbi senda x-treme 72cc 2-stroke with a dellorto carb 21 is too high (2000-2500rpm) and it doesnt fall. Theres not a problem with the throttle cable, there are no air leaks on the vacuums and the idle screws are adjusted fine. Also the carb is clean.What could the problem be? When i put 1st gear in theres a hit on the gearbox since the rpms are high and it will destroy it. Sometimes when i put 1st gear the engine stops after the hit.Please i need an answer fast because i am going to sell it in 3 days ...

I am going to buy a DID cain can anyone recommend a chain riviter other than the expensive km500 DID tool.I am a little dubious of the cheaper versions and would like some advice on buying a cheaper non DID tool. Do they work is the simple question or are they as some reviews suggest a waste of money. regards vic

Read with interest last weeks MCN column on Oil advice centre. I have a different query which hopefully you can give advice on.My Buell xb12x has mineral oil specified. Having read your item, it would seem Synthetic oil may be better - running cooler - Buell issue better performing etc etc. Can I use syntheic as apposed to Mineral and if so which one would be best?

My mate's got a 1997 honda sgx50 sky moped. It has just developed a problem where by it will go from tickover to screaming revs without touching the throttle!Using a donor bike which runs fine, we have swapped carb, slide, throttle cable and auto choke. Problem stays on original bike.Any ideas anyone?
