bronco91shee Posted November 19, 2004 Author Report Posted November 19, 2004 ohh, and since i forgot bout checkin the plugs.. i know there knew just a few mothsn ago, and they r the gold series NGK, whatever my racer friends run..and it starts fine, idles fine..it just bogs a lil thru the whole throttle,a nd really noticeable in the begging of the powerband. once it gets really up htere, i dont seem to notice much of a problem.. it seems like i need to lean it out, but i thought for winter it should go rich. it does require the choke to start it still..so idk. please help Quote
FIRST BANSHEE Posted November 20, 2004 Report Posted November 20, 2004 I would check the plugs first, they sound fouled. Change them if needed,then check your jetting Quote
