I just picked up a Deuce and it has some sort of motor issue that I am guessing someone out there knows how to fix.
When you crank it up it runs wide open. I have heard guys tell of motors running away, but I don't think this is what is wrong with it as the pull switch still kills it and there is no smoke.
Moving the pedal has no effect on it. We were at the base, so we tried limited actions. We unhooked the throttle cable and backed off the idle screw completely. It would not run at all with the screw adjusted all the way out, but when we went back in a little bit with it it was wide open again.
I am guessing something is probably stuck in the fuel system, but we have never been into one and don't know where to start or where to look.
