Post Engine problem
My GTR 35 will start and run fine at higher rpms but will not idle. I changed my filter and put new gas but still no luck. Anyone have some advice? Thanks

It will run really rough at low rpms and then kill, I checked the choke and it is working, also it will idle if the choke is pulled.

Sounds like you got some bug junk in it somewhere, or maybe it's running too lean. Give er a good cleaning and blow it out real good, maybe that'll help.

Whats your idle set at? Might be too low, but the odd thing is that it will idle with the choke pulled somewhat?

Thats means your a lil lean. Check your carb. Maybe It needs a cleaning.

Did you mess with you A/F screws at all?
