well now my spree reacts to all throttle amounts just when i get to about 15 or 20 or so it boggs a little. but if i give it full throttle backwards really hard it will continue to go normal without sputtering. does any body know my problem. Thanks

The muffler and or air cleaner could be plugged. Removing it will determine that.

On my 84 I solved that problem by plugging a hole someone cut in my air cleaner cover. You might check to see that the cover is on tight and not leaking. I believe in one of the ancient posts someone had to ducktape the cover onto the air cleaner to solve the same problem.

The wires that are screwed to the frame are ground wires. Find those, they will all be the same color. Remove the fastening screw, check that it and the connector are clean. If not, clean with sand paper, wire brush or chemicals and refasten tight. Trace the wires. Make sure all connections are clean and tight.
