Is the spark plug wet or dry after it acts up??
A gurgling sound like its flooded out?? if its flooding out I'd pull the carb off and give it a good looking over?? Have you done regular maintenance like clean the air filter and keep the valves properly adjusted?? If you think it is a carb problem start by verifing fuel supply to carb. turn off the fuel valve and pull the fuel line off the carb and place that end in a clean glass container and open the fuel valve and let it run for a few minutes to verify you have a good/constant fuel supply from the tank. If the fuel runs a bit then slows or stops take the fuel cap off and let some air in the tank and if the fuel starts flowing you have a plugged vent on the cap(it happened to me and someone else) If you have a good constant fuel supply from the fuel tank then you may want to pull the carb off and take the float bowl off and have a look inside. If there is dirt/debris in the float clean the carb and tank and install an inline fuel filter. |
