Carbs?
Carbs?
Ok been bothering Hipster and Chet about a stumbling Looper 150.
-Cleaned carbs
-sprayed with cleaner/ rinsed with gas
-don't have compressed air to blow out orifices (this could be it)
-changed plugs
-compression decent
-will not wind out
-hard to start cold
-hard to get on plain
be more vigorous with the carb. cleaning? Any tips? Suggestions? First time out had little hints of full power now, not so much...

Re: Carbs?
I was warned not to soak carbs too long in cleaner as it can eat away at things...Lots of black s@#$ coming out the exhaust.

Re: Carbs?
Did you find the carb that was flooding when we test fired it? It could be flooding. With the new plugs can you see a difference in any of them?

Re: Carbs?
If you use the stuff I gave you, you don't have to worry it won't do any damage like the dip tanks will. The jets should come out nice and shiny.

Re: Carbs?
I didn't notice that problem after the cleaning. I bench ran it today. Will keep my eyes peeled...

Re: Carbs?
Another thing to check is the lever on the choke.

It should be back towards the body.
