 36 prodrive help
I have a 2012 36 pd with 60 hours on it, I was out yesterday and it was running bad on low end backing firing through carb and exhaust when trying to throttle it up. Once up and running on top end it ran fine. Could it be something in carb, or do you think it could be a valve issue thanks

 Re: 36 prodrive help
Is this an all of a sudden thing or its been getting worse over time? Does it do it in warm weather too? On a side note, if you wanna fix the fact that its a PD, CJB might have a spare one of these you can borrow

 Re: 36 prodrive help
ok thanks I was gonna clean carb then have a leak test done if carb didn't fix prob. The only reason to put it forsale would be just to buy the gen 3 model pd sure wouldn't be any others

 Re: 36 prodrive help
Damn you fukers are like sharks on chum  ...but here's the kicker, I didn't need no for sale sign. That unit I had is so bad to the bone I had folks beggin me to sell it. So being the nice guy I am I kindly obliged. Now I have the joy of building another. Now y'all quit puttin the swamp ninja on this mans thread!

 Re: 36 prodrive help
make sure your spark plug wires are not wet and arcing on motor cover, little electrical tape will help

 Re: 36 prodrive help
Yes I have checked the wires don't believe that's the prob, going to do carb cleaning this weekend. Hope that does the trick if not then looking at valves issue possible, is what I am being told. thanks for all the input.
