My 1400 ran OK but would not accelerate well and would push the combustion out the tail pipe at higher RPM's.

I tore it down last night and have found that three of the nozzles are not flowing right. One is 99% blocked, one is 85% blocked and one is probably 40% blocked. Based on the size of flame when hooked to propane.

I ran a fine wire into the two worst ones and was easily able to insert it down to where it would hit the fuel ring but this did not help the situation at all. So, I assume the blockage is more than just crud in the nozzle, but I would think Joe would test each fuel ring before putting it on an engine??

I'm glad that I found an obvious problem/cause for the my engine's poor running. Now I just have to figure out how to fix it.
