 24 Hp honda mud buddy LT issue!!!! Help
I just bought a mud buddy 24hp Honda long tail. Seems I have some issues with it. When not under load runs fine. Under load it only runs about 1850 rpm when it's wide open 1790 at idle. I took the carb off tonight and checked it out looked to be fine. Checked the fuel solenoid on the bottom of the fuel bowl.. It looked a little dirty so I cleaned put it all back together and still the same issue. Tried it with one and two people with no change. Anyone got any ideas on this? Revs upand hits governor but in water or mud 1 person or two only seems like quarter of power. Plugs new. Tried old ones same thing!
The gas is new.

we r going to replace the right coil pack.. that side doesnt spark like the left side. its very weak. so maybe thats why the power shortage.

I had a honda that did the very same thing, took carb apart cleaned it and it started running right again. I did the same thing you did at first cleaned the bowl sprayed some carb cleaner in it. it was pretty clean so i didnt think that was the prob, but it was. Try taking it apart.

The carbs in those are pretty finicky; did you take the main jets and make sure they were clear?

The fuel shutoff solenoid is the main trouble
