dude! do you have ANY fuel filters? we told you to take carb apart and clean it out - 20 bucks and a 10 buck book and youd be fine....




i really really am fighting the need to say "buy a honda" (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif)

Well duh, pull the freaking carb, resist impulse to toss it in the path of Rita....pull the top off, blow out the bowl, pull the jets and ream them clear with a jet reamer, reassemble, WITH a CLEAR, reusable fuel filter and fire it up.....keep an extinguisher handy.

BTW....hope ya have AAA...if ya don't yer not thinking.

BTW2....what is the inside of yer gas tank like????

freakin listen man.

a boiled tank aint gonna help if you arent using fuel filters... that crap is still in your lines....

take the carb apart.... use 2 filters. one before pump, one before carb.

BTW - WHAT FUEL PUMP ARE YOU USING??
