Status: offline 		 Thanks guys problem solved, first my exhaust had a leak at the manifold, gasket was bad where manifold meets engine's exhaust port, plus my LSN was a little clogged causeing low pressure and at half a tank would cut off, got a new gasket and dissassembeled the carb cleaned it and put it back together runs like a dream! thanks
