i got a new car, the car is used has been sitting in the shelf for 2 yrs,
I did the cleaning all that stuff and got the car starting,
now the problem is when I give some gas to it, it dies


what's the solution to it??
 
Could be many things
nned to know what you have and what you did so far
the car has been sitting for 2 years
was there fuel left in it?
Did you take the engine apart and inspect it and reseal it?
Inspect the fuel tank and lines
are you using fresh fuel
set the carb back to factory settings?
Let us know what you have done so far so we can help
 
i cleaned everything in the car, the tank, filter... I changed the plug, I have new gas.

hte thing is the car starts and idles fine doesn't cut off, but when i give it some gas dies.
 
Id start by counting your turns on the hsn and lsn and back them all the way out to clean the orifices. I use standard automotive carb cleaner as it rubber friendly. You can either remove the carb to do this or do it with it on, you'll just have to remove glow pulg and crank it to clean it out. Down side to that is you could wash debris into the engine which would be detrimental. I strongly advise removing the carb to do this. Put the needles back to base settings. I don't know what your working on so I can't help you there. Reseal the carb base with good high temp silicone and let it set up. Try it from there. Hope this helps.
