Default Re: 8BA doesnt have power

Big sucking sound? Like an old man running, mouth open sucking for air. thats starving
for fuel . Must have grabbed dirt or something, main jets venturies plugged or the power valve took a dump. As 51 Merc said it won't hurt to go to winter on the acc. pump I run
mine there all year, But the acc. pump mainly comes into place for cold starts. Old cure
sometimes, race it up put hand over carb just to about stall it. And 'sometimes' that piece
of dirt may get sucked out up, by vacuum. I wrote this here many times, engine off
throttle wide open and shoot shop air in each venturie you should get a good fuel mist
on each side - a good good strong atomized mist. I bet thats ya problem sam
