Mine does that too i think. does yours bog right when you hit the gas and if you stay on it for a few seconds it runs normal until you stop again

thats what i thought too so i richened it and it keep doing it. it would get better (as the engine got cooler) but it got to the point i richened it soo much it would stall and still run hot (270+ degrees)
