  • Carb Problem

    Hello

    After running great for a while all went down hill to day. Began to, what felt like a miss between 2500 and 3500 PRMs and then got worse to the point that would hardly run at all.

    Pulled the carbs, all looks good. bread tied to sync and she fired right up but the same problem appeared 10 minutes into a ride.

    Any suggestions?

    Sounds like a fuel flow problem
    Plugged filter.
    Kinked fuel line.
    Petcock problem.
    Plugged in tank screens.
    Vacuum line off/plugged/kinked to petcocks.
    Low fuel in tank.
