First time I had this one in the barrel today after going through the motor this
last winter. It idles better than it runs fast. When you try going fast it
sounds real “doggy”….. like a slow dog on a hot day.
The carb was tuned-in to it’s sweet spot, and there’s not much leeway either
way on the needle adjustment.
The cylinders are running nice and cool, so it’s not over heating.
Both plugs were hot to the touch.
The longer I ran it, the worse it got going “fast”, and eventually quit on me.
Being that it idles better than it goes fast, I’m thinking maybe the coil is B.O.
I only tested it with an ohm meter and it seemed okay.
Any other ideas on what’s wrong?
I’ll have to see if I can find one running on YouTube for comparison.
