Anybody know why my KQ 450 runs lousy while going in reverse? Going forwards in either L or H, it runs great. But it acts like it is being choked out when I drive in R. It now has 10 hrs on it and about 40 miles.
Thanks

 

You are probably on the rev-limiter. It's not hard to get the machines rpms up in reverse and most of the time it will "hit" the limiter. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

It will run the same way with the dif lock on. Just hold the reverse over ride button in and that should fix your problem
