Title: Stalls when giving throttle but doesn't when fuel door is open
Post by: plewis51 on March 19, 2011, 10:38:07 AM
So I finished my rejet. I got her to start up with choke on and turned off choke after warming up. Adjusted idle to about 11- 1300 rpm and it sounds perfect. I go to give some throttle and she bogs down and dies. I open the fuel door, start her up, she idles at the right rpm, give throttle and no problems! Even comes back down to good idle rpm each. I tested giving throttle a few times with no issues of stalling.

I close the fuel door, start her up, idles at good rpm, give throttle and she stalls. Any suggestions?  :dunno_black:

Fuel door vents clogged :dunno_white: Think that is the name of it. Clean up the door and see if that helps!

Let us know what you found inside the vent.  My guess is a little cocoon.

and if you have no idea what they're talking about, there's a walk through right here. Nothing too complicated...
