Still not running

My filter seems good, I could not find anywhere on how to test for compression. I found a section that says "Connect compression tester".

Where do you connnect it, any step by step instructions?
Any estimates on how much a shop would charge for a ring job?

Poor Acceleration

I have an 85' Spree and it idles fine. Top speed is good around 30 MPH. However, acceleration from 5-15 is horrible. I have to fan the throttle to get it to maximize the acceleration. Even doing this it still seem sluggish. I have cleaned the carb, any ideas on where to start. Thanks for any help.

Please elaborate

Prostreet,

Can you reword the solution you proposed so it is grammatically correct. I have the same symptoms but it is close to difficult to follow what you are saying.

Thanks
