My Honda GX 31 doesn't want to run at full throttle.
It seems that at about 3/4 throttle it starts to die.
If I try to give it full throttle it bogs down bad and wants to die immediately.
If I back off the throttle when it is starting to die it runs good.
I cleaned the air and fuel filters, and it ran better for awhile, but not long.
Can the fuel filter look clean and still be dirty?
I guess I could try to run it with no filter and see if that makes a difference.
Well Fellas... I am asking for tips as to what this problem could be.
My next step to fixing the problem is to take the carb apart and look for wear.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
PS> This motor sat for 2 years and when I parked it ran great.
Did sitting that long with old gas gum up the carb?
Thank You, Fred
