Hi all, great site you have here!
I have a Power Torque motor (early Chinese) and i cant figure out what is up with the decompressor.
The Decompressor itself appears fine, ie. springs open, and when sucked shut and blocked, stays shut with no air leaks.
The motor is currently a bare block, with no carby/hoses/exhaust attached.
Problem is, when installed the decompressor does not function. It appears that the compression from the motor acts on the underside of the decompressor diaphragm, closing it immediately.
Within 2 revolutions(~half the cord), the motor becomes very hard to pull through.
I have tried the motor with 2 different decompressors with the same result (one with the restrictor installed)
I have checked there is no carbon in the head holding it shut.
Any ideas on what could be causing this behaviour?
