I've looks at lot of previous posts of similar issues but non exactly the same so I thought perhaps I'd post, especially since I'm new to 2 strokes.
So its Yahama 5hp . Was working fine yesterday and went on a long trip planing up the River Yealm. I refilled it with fuel today and now suddenly a bit dodgy. Same fuel as the day before I might add.
It starts and idles normally. But with a little throttle it stutters and struggles. I find that I can get it working out if I apply 60% choke... which would normally cause it problems once running. Once I get up to speed with some choke and I remove the choke it get a burst of power and then it tries to cut out and I have to take all throttle off to to prevent it from stalling.
I've never stripped down this carb and thought best i post before doing so.
Thoughts?
