Post 16hp Briggs Problems
I have a 16hp Briggs Twin onb a 2000 longtail go-devil. My problem is it runs perfect wide open for about 150yds then bogs down, it dose'nt kill just throttles down. I pump the ball and it runs fine. Just had carb cleaned and new fuel pump. I heard that it could be low on oil. Could it be fuel tank or filter???Any help??

Call Warren at Go-Devil and get a new fuel pump and vaccum breaker (I think dats what it was called. Both parts are under $20 each. I had dat same problem he had me change those out and problem solved. Also could be carb issues.

What size fuel line you running, I had the same problem with my 16 briggs and switched to 1/4 inch fuel line and it fixed it.
