Im having alittle trouble with my 115 O.B. when i give it throttle to fast she is bogging down and sometimes she stalls and sometimes she loses power any ideas why it's doing this ? When i steadily give it throttle its fine only when i push it down fast ?

Check for a sticking stator, slammer. Failure of the throttle and the ignition timing to advance in synch can cause your symptoms.<br /><br />Good luck. :)

Re: Motor Bogs Down !

I am not for sure if your motor has one but look on the bottom just below the carb and there might be a plate that has a few screws or bolts holding it down. Under this plate is an air filter that allows air to enter the motor with the cowl on. It could be dirty and not allowing enough air into the carb.
