Answers:

  1. yeah, sounds like an intake seal leak. could be a clogged intermediate jet, but more than likely an intake leak. change the intakes seals, they only cost about $5. By: Guest on: 11-1-2012


  2. Just trying to help here, Was idle mixture set while cold or hot? A rich condition could be fine while cold, but when hot, idle could stumble. Lean condition is usually the opposite, shitty cold and better while hot. I am not there so like I said, just trying to offer advice. By: WINK on: 11-1-2012


  3. 12 year old intake seals. I would change them first. By: Guest on: 11-1-2012


  4. Actually I have changed the intake seals but the screws are such a bitch to get to even with the tank and carb off that I'm wondering if I didn't get then tight enough. Thanx for the responses people. By: HD3006 on: 11-1-2012
