Hello, and thank you for your time.
I have a 1988 DT115 that starts reasonably well, but stalls when I put it in gear.
I can get it to go about once every 10 to 15 tries, but that's hard on the starter, not to mention my patience.
I've had the carbs off so many times to clean them that I know them by their full names.
I've not used carb kits, but I know how the needle valves\seat should look & work and I follow the manuals specs for re-assembly.
I can't say 100% that it isn't a carb problem, but I'd like to think I was thorough in my cleaning of them.
It runs well at WOT, when I can get it there.
I also did drain the carbs after the last use of '07, but it didn't run all that well last year & had some similar symptoms, which I thought were caused from my "playing around" with the choke plunger adjustment, which I returned to it's original setting.
Funny how much better it started after that (duh).
If anyone has any places for me to start, I'd greatly appreciate it.
