My custom built Honda 4-Wheeler with a 350 4-Stroke engine will kick start then die immediately if I don't pump the throttle to keep it idling roughly. It started when I was out riding today and it was low on oil I found out. So I added a quart of oil to it to bring it back up and not even 5 minutes later of riding it died and started acting up. Before this it was kick starting and riding just fine, anyone have an answer to this. Thank You.

are you sure that you didn't overfill it?

overfilling can cause running and starting issues.
afterall the excess oil has to go somewhere.


if this is not the case it could very well be a carburetion issue, but i would also check the connection at the cdi and ignition switch.
