| Hey guys just a quick question. When ever I'm out riding my tractor and I hit a decent bump or go down a hill with larger rocks, my engine like bogs down and sometimes so much is almosts shuts off. I am curious about this (still havn't taken apart carb) if my needle is sticking or out of place? Just an annoying problem I've been having which gets annoying on long trips so any advice or help is appreciated! Thanks! | |

- Okay thanks! I'll pull it apart and check them out. Usually I just use a small paper clip to clean those but I am afraid it just pushes the gunk farther in? Thanks again for the quick reply!
Never use metallic tools on a jet unless you want to change the jetting. Use Carb cleaner, and compressed air, use a straw from a broom if you need to unplug something. paper clips are made out of steel. steel is harder than ANY material used in a carb. steel will scratchand gouge jets and passages, causing the mixture to change. There are millions of sites online dealing with the proper care and maintenance of carbs of all sorts. | |
