From idle to about half throttle the LT80 runs good, at full throttle it falls on its face and will stall if you don't let off. If you ease it up to full it will make it but not a snap from half to full. Carb and air box are stock, just under 120 pounds on the cyclinder, new plug, stock pipe. Is it too lean? Recently installed a new throttle cable. Should I move the clip down one on the needle to richen it up? Help.

 

NO.
You need to clean the carb.
Main jet is plugged IMO. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

I will give that a shot tomorrow, thanks for the help. Will post the results.

 

LT80, you were right on, all sorts of junk on and in the jet as well in the float bowl. I did NOT put the black rubber collar back over the jet, seems this could cause problems as part ages. Ho[e thats not a problem. Runs great!! Thank you!!!

 

yes you dont need that black piece in it gave us a problem for awhile till we fig it out.
