Hi Doghunter,<br />You might check the reed valves behind that carb. It might not be seating properly.<br />Just a thought

What kind of carb cleaner did you treat this with? If you soaked it in carb dip you have just done more harm than good.

I used a napa brand carb. cleaner & I have used it many times on carbs previously and has done well thanks also whenever I run the engine it will bog down at full throttle and at times it will catch and run like a spotted ape
