Title: 82 fb running problems, fuel delivery
Post by: siberianchilli on November 30, 2015, 01:05:06 PM
I am having issues with fuel delivery. Gas makes it to the carb, but apparently not to the actual intake port. Do I need to clean my whole carb? also are there any videos or whatnot about taking off the carb, dont want to get any lines mixed up and whatnot, thanks

Does it run or does it stall during acceleration? Or...?

I have to squirt fuel into the carb with a squirt bottle.  I believe the jets are clogged.

If it has not run for a long time, pull the top off the carb and see if the float is stuck in the up position, 

If its stuck up then fuel can't get into the carb

I will be checking that first, but even if thats the problem, I will probably take it all off and clean almost all of it. mine as well do it now
