like he said usually if the weather changes enough you will have to rejet but did you try adjusting the air screw at all? sounds like you could screw it in a half turn maybe.

air filter clean and oiled? fresh plug? clean carb? check the reeds? and jetting? commom things easy to do you need to do a compresion test also what have you tryed to do to it to fix it anything nothing what

Damp weather + empty tank = condensation in tank. Add fuel, now you have water in the fuel.

Just a thought. Easy to check though.

Drain all the fuel from your tank into a very clean (and dry) bucket. Let it sit for a couple minutes and look down into the bucket, a flashlight helps, maybe tilting it to one side a bit. If you see anything that looks like bubbles rolling around on the bottom of the bucket, that is water. If you find water, you can pour most of the fuel back in after a good flushing of your tank, leaving the water and a bit of gas in the bucket.

You have been around long enough that I nor anybody else needs to answer such a simple question for you.

if the choke is on it drives normal ? i will try that soon royal!

 

[royalt67]

Choke on > normal. Could be a semi-plugged pilot. (or airleak) Check the water anyway, mine drove me berzerk before i figured it out.

 

[phragle]

So if it runs better with the choke on once its warm, what does that tell you?? Feel free to answer after you blow it up.

Put the carb back on start it and make small adjustments at a time and see what it does.

 

[brandoz28]

start by screwing the airscrew all the way in, and then back out 1.5 times
