Re: Losing Umph uphill
The kit for the carb runs about $20.00 and is easy to do. i just make a
point of not taking anything apart that doesn't need to be moved to clean. To test the canister, just drive home tonight with the gas cap loose or off. If it still bogs, the canister is fine. I don't know if you have tested the canister or not or changed it's air filter?
