Wow 44s on a 1.7 is a little to big.
I would check to see if your idle jet are clogged |

Idle jets are my guess also,if 44's are in the same position as 40's ,on the side , they unscrew ,you just blow them out ,replace and that should correct the problem. If it does I would wonder where the crap that pluged them came from? Maybe a change in fuel filter is in order. The jets have a very small opening and plug easly. Good luck keep us posted Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) Edit: I agree on 44's being to big for a 1.7, i have a 1.7 with 40's and love them. |

check your spark plugs to see if they are BLACK due to running rich.

Agreed the velocity is probably SOOOOOO slow through them carbs that you are running rich just to keep it running and progressively you are fouling out the plugs.
Change plugs and clean idle jets. try it some more. |
