88 Honda Pal hesitates

Post by ratt2001 »

My Pal at full throttle when it gets into it's higher speed range and high rpm it starts to hesitate like it is lacking fuel any ideas before I start ripping it apart.

Check your spark plug.

A good carb cleaning seems to be the place to start after that.

The screws are for idle only.
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.
