Default dies off choke
hay guys
back again well after three days of pumping seafoam-berrymans and 2 cans of generic carb spray it still dies as i take it off choke or crack the throtle so i pulled the carbs today it seems clear i can blowgun air thru the pilot jet while holding the air jet and it comes out the bypass ports and pilot outlet in the outlet side of the carb the only thing i can see wrong is that one of the diaphrams on the venturi piston was loose and would not stay on the piston i am going to replace these as soon as i can git parts parts houses close early here on saturday
