Carb or not?? 12 Months ago
|
|
Ok new to the site.... Hello!!! Need help
2004 roadstar starts, idles. Runs ok at 1/8 to 1/4 throttle. When you accelerate past that point it spits, backfires. Like the plugs are fouled? Changed plugs drained float, at a loss never rebuild a carb so don't know where to go next

Sounds like you could have a fuel delivery problem. A good carb cleaning is a good place to start.

 from Kansas. Post more details about the issue per Erbman's request - someone here will likely get it figured out. I've learned a lot from this clinic!
