Bogging- Jetting

Sticking- inspect the cable abd throttle housing take the slide out clean it, or better yet clean the whole carb, that may get rid of your bogging if it ran good with that jetting before.

I had the same problem it is when you have the gas tank on it kinks the throttle cable and causes it to stick open or cloesed and if it got stuck open thet could cause you to bog. I ended up getting an fcr carb but the way to fix it is to drain the gas and make a dent in the gas tank above the carburetor.

my the bogging was fixed. still dont know how but it just stopped. never did anythin cept the main jet in it. i run a 172 main. but thats with a built motor and like pipe, filter 400 carb, porting, cam high comp piiston. the stuck throttle went any by spraying the ***** out of the carb springs with carb clean. take the plastic off and give all the springs a good spray and also spray the throttle springs and the slide. hasnt done it since
