Sounds like the LSN may be to lean or the idle stop is set to low. These are just guesses and is where I would start. Set everything on the carb back to factory setting and see what happens. Good Luck

If its a 2.5 give us a few more details about your problem. The trx2.5 is a little tricky to tune, but once you tune it right the power is unbelievable.

It sounds like it may be the glow plug, check to see if its bad.

If you want to clean it go to any store that sells paint supplies and pick up some Denatured alcohol, it's cheaper than the stuff they sell at the hobby shops and works great. You will also need a squirt bottle for it.

guys...your getting way to crazy. Its not the plug, it just needs a igher idle achieved vid the idle speed screw. Turn the iss clockwise 1/4 turn and see how it is.
Later
