Ok somehow water got inside the carburetor where the throttle cable goes and oxidized everything. well the throttle cable broke so i replaced it.....but its running like crap. there is no longer anymore water in it....is this what is causing it to not run good. if so what can i do about it and what is the best ay to clean it. I will appreciate it. thanks

theres alot of what ifs here. did you replace ALL the gas? we need to know what your setup is. stock? modded? is your plug fouled? is your choke stuck? did you check the jets? check all that and get back to us.

yes replaced all gas, new spark plug, choke is not stuck, took off float bowl and checked everything and it is completely stock
