I am restoring an Suzuki 1987 DT85 that had been sitting in storage for several years. I have givin the carbs a good carb cleaner spray shot cleaning . It was not idleing
right so took out idle screws and sprayed carb cleaner down passages, blew out with air and engine idles good now. When I run up engine with the start throttle lever, engine runs good, reves up good. When in the water idles good, shifts good, idles with throttle control in forward gear, but stalls out on throttle advane to full power. Will only run in gear at idle speeds, past 1/4 throttle stalls out and dies.

???

Carbs need more thorough cleaning and possibly a new fuel pump diaphram .....
