Spree hunts at idle then dies

Post by smsudad »

Hi, Was wondering if anyone had an opinion. My spree 87 model runs on at idle then dies and will not restart. By runs on I mean it runs fast and slow and fast and slow then dies. Have replaced everything in the carb that I could needle, polished seat. checked for leaks both fuel and vacuum.

Greetings:

Check the vacuum petcock? The lines leading to the carb?
