    Seat Switch Question

    I think, seat switches works one of two ways...normally open....which means the switch is open and when you get off the seat the switch closes which grounds out the engine ignition to stop it.

    Likely you've got a bad compression release on your cam. You also have a leakey Carb float not shutting off (or your backfire solenoid is not working on your float bowl, which is supposed to shut off fuel when you turn off your key. You can test that by turn the key on, you should be able to...
