[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 5419, member: 82"] When it starts to cough and fart, try sniffing the exhaust, see if it smells lean. It sounds like a clog to me making it not get enough fuel. Have you tried removing the carby and cleaning it with carby cleaner and compressed air? it only takes a small bit of junkt caught in the main jet to cause you problems like that. Also it could be the pin that controls the fuel level in the carby. I'd start with giving the carby a good clean. I have a generator that runs well then coughs and farts but if i'm quick i blow into the fuel tank to push more fuel out and it works well. There is rust in the tank that i simply can't get rid of that is clogging up the filters. One day i will coat the inside of the tank to get rid of the rust problem... one day [/QUOTE]
