ok today it is like 19 degrees out and i started the 7 up to go to the store it was kinda hard starting but i thought it was because it was cold out on my way it started to run like **** and had a manjor lack of power so i turned arround and it quit and i almost thought i heard something dragging so i look and there is a fire coming out the end of the pipe any ideas or is it dead?

 

A sure way to tell if its dead is to compression test it.That wouldn't explain the fire tho.That has me baffled.

 

Yeah, all newbies listen up, first thing you do with engine troubles is a compression test.



If you have fire from your exhaust port, your getting way to much unburt fuel in there meaning your rotors aren't burning it.
