First off I want to say thank you in advance for any help that is given, it is much appreciated!
I have a 1981 xs400 special 2 with stock carbs on it, I have switched over manual petcock (covered vacuum "knobs" on carb boots) with good gas flow. I am getting very good spark on both sides, correct wires to each plug. My float height is set at around 26mm. Mixture screws set and 3 1/2.
It will start and run good for a min and then act as though it is gas starved, sputter for a few seconds then die. Also while riding I can not fully let off the Throttle for it will die. I have changed float height and mixture screw numerous times. The carbs are extremely clean! I can not figure out what is wrong! I just want to ride! Please help!!!!!
