A Cobra MT250C engine that starts well but stalls when full throttle is applied could be caused by incorrect spark plug installation, a flooded engine, or issues with fuel delivery such as an incorrect fuel/oil ratio or a clogged carburetor. Also, improper throttle cable adjustment or air filter blockage could affect engine performance at high speed.
