85 spree boging

Post by pod4444 »

got my spree runnin after a top end rebuid but its boging very bad every time u give it gas it barley picks up and wants to die.already cleaned the carb 2 times,im wondering is it pumping to much oil or maybe not enough causing it to bog.my banshee would do this if i didnt have the gas mixed right at 40:1 on it.any ideas?

If the bog is right off idle try setting the idle mixture screw a 1/4 to 1/2 turn in and see what happens. You can try raising the needle if the bog is above 1/4 throttle.
