I have a 84 spree stock atleast i think so,lol when i got to tune the carb the only way ot get it to run right is to have the Air and throttle mixture screws turned all the way in and the airbox unhooked from the carb, i've cleaned the carb a few times really don't want to run without a airbox. Anyone in the kalamazoo area want to help me out that would be awsome thanks

whats your needle set at? did you clean the carb with dril bits? worst case scenario you can send it to myspree to be rebuilt
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.
