Hey, These are pics of the carb and what I have hooked up so far. Like i said it idles but has no power when i give it throttle. It sounds like its sucking air but the rpms aren't raising it seems. idles kinda rough. Ive adjusted the idle screw and done what i can. Im at a dead end here. The jets aren't clogged but im thinking im missing a hose or something needs to be replaced. please help thanks.


Numbered Questions:
1. Is there a hose that is supposed to be connected to this port or is this a breathing port of some type?
2. I understand things like this need to be replaced but could this be the problem even if i had it connected and taped with electrical tape?








Thanks Again for the Help

does the choke open up when the engine warms up?? is there a vacuum line going to the choke pull off????

take some wd-40,starting fluid and with the engine running spray some around the carb(not in it) if theres a vacuum leak the engine will speed up or slow down

The choke opens when I give it throttle. Also there is a hose the runs from the side of it the carb. I will try the starter fluid later today.

where are you?? somewhere warm?? loosen the 3 screws on the choke oven, turn it clockwise(i think) so the choke is open and see what happens.

Yes im in Tucson, AZ, It has two normal screws but then a pin through the 3rd screwhole. Dont know if i should just break it off and only run with the two screws. Havent tried turning it yet, will do so after work. Thanks.

try to back off the two screws and turn it

When you mean turn it you mean the black portion of the choke oven and then tighten the screws down so its perm turned? Thanks

right

I turned it both forward and backward and nothing changed. When i turned it so that it opened the butterfly it stayed open and would die when i gave it throttle(butterfly stayed open if when given throtle). then no change when i tightened it to make it keep the butterfly close.


I was told i shoud try to unplug the spout connector but am having a hard time locating it. here are some pics of what i found
today

At work but i took more pics.
A-on the passenger side of the engine bay, Found this red harness not connected to anything and nothing around it of its side either.
B- Dont know what this is but i found it disconnected and nothing around it to connected to. it has two prongs on the inside.
C- is this the spout connector?

if you open the choke and it dies out, its not gettin enough gas
