Throttle

[DrKnow]

I am not getting a very good throttle response when I hit the gas. My buggy does a double take, then takes off. What is the problem and what should I do to get a clean response?

You may be a bit lean on the lsn. Do the fuel line pinch test. The engine should rev a bit and then die in 2-4 seconds. If your on the 2 second side, richen it a 1/16th turn. If your on the 4 second side, lean it a hair. Other useful info to help you out would be temps, how much smoke are you getting and how does the rig run other wise.

If it's kinda loading up when you pull the throttle you are possibly too rich on the LSN, but definitely read the tuning articles to help out. Giving tuning advice is always hard over a forum....but we can hopefully give you some general guidance ;-)

Fruit, I just deleted a 5 year old thread you posted in, dealing with cell phones. 5 year old technology no longer applies.
PLEASE do not post in threads that are no longer active. Look at the date before you reply.

I used to fall in these traps all the time when I first started hanging around.
