Viper wont run on all 3

[Maheu]

My viper wont run on all 3 unless I have the choke pulled out a little bit u think my carbs need to be gone through need some help if any one could please. U think its my floats?

Maheu:
Sounds like a card issue, maybe dirty pilots.. Only one way to find out. Pull them and take a look. It's not a difficult job.

 

[Maheu]

I had a idea. But wasnt sure if my floats where stickin. Thanks for ur advise.

Pull the pilots... they are dirty.

X3...most times if a sled doesn't run on all 3 (idle) you have dirty pilots

I just had them cleaned last year. You think they would be gummed up allredy?

Yes. With all the ethanol is the gas now days... for sure.

don't let any gas with ethanol sit in the tank or carbs past 2 weeks..other wise you will have a problem.Glad our premium here has no ethanol.my carbs are always clean..but I still clean them again....

Good idea to clean them before each season.could prevent bigger problems down the road. I use Startron religiously during the season. No problems yet.

add Seafoam to your tank and every fill up also...may help..

that sh!t works great i love using sea foam but it is pretty expensive!

 

[snopax]

Seafoam is nothing but alcohol.... Oh and Startron is just naptha, same as stabil. Ethanol does not gum up your carb, evaporated fuel does. It is amazing how much mis-information is out there.

I took the boals of my carburaters sure as shit the pilot was plugged on the pto side.Also the pilots are stock 45 they should be a 47.5 with the slp pipes. Would that make a big difference in performance.
