I have a BF2D Honda. I have recently stripped down and cleaned the carb. Now the motor will only run on full choke and dies when I open the throttle or push the choke in. When the motor has warmed a bit I can push the choke in a small way and the speed increases. There doesn't seem too much to tweak on this carb. Please can you offer some pointers. Thanks
Answer Hello Barry:
Did you Soak the Carburator Overnight in Cleaning Solution(carburator cleaner)? Cleaning Carburators with Spray Carburator Cleaner just Loosens up the Varnish Inside the Carburator. The Loose Varnish Causes the Problem you Described. Soak the Carburator Overnight and Blow Out All the Passages with Compressed Air. Hope this Helps. I am here if you Require more Assistance. Let me know what Happens, Please. I enjoy knowing the Outcome. Thanks.
