I posted this on another thread, but figured I'd ask in my own:
After 10-20 mins usually top out around 40 mph. Had carbs rebuilt 2 years ago, ran great till last year... now the above issue. Only 10-15 hours on it since the rebuilt carbs. 2 guys w/ over 30 years of experience on 2 stroke engines gave me this advice. What do you guys think:
Try to empty tank (could be water getting into the carbs)
Run 93 octane (said I should always run this)
Use stabil fuel system cleaner (not just the stabilizer) Said it works great. It will smoke like hell, then should run awesome if there is dirt,etc...
get a water/fuel seperator into the fuel line
Any thoughts from the experts on here? He said try all this... should work. The carbs shouldn't be that gummed up after 2 seasons now (probably on 10-15 hours since the rebuild). Also, much cheaper to try this, than get a $1000 rebuild again.
Any help is appreciated!
