Can someone help with this mystery? So my Honda Elite's exhaust has
been cracked (broken) right where it meets the head. So I was riding
it home at night and it just starts to bog down. I kept it running for
about 4 more min. but than it stopped, no starting up again. So I
checked for spark, it has spark! I took off the carb and cleaned it
and all the jets and floats,put it back on and still no start. The
scooter has good compression to. My neighbor seems to believe that
something could be wrong with the valves being stuck or something.
Please help with any info or ideas. Thank you very much,
Aaron

Begin by replacing the sparkplug with a new one and see what happens.
If still no luck then remove the plug, wet it with gas, and add a few
drops of gas into the plug hole, reinstall the plug and see if it tries
to start. Report back with findings.
