John, you got the Kaw fixed? I been waiting to find out so I could do mine.

Yo Dave, Welllllllllllllll its better!!!!!!!!!!!! Its NOT perfect but so good Im not gonna fix it for now at least cuz even at its worst it still ran fine at wide open n had plenty of mowing power. I DID remove the lines at the vacuum fuel pump and spray a ton of gumout both ways,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,sprayed gumout n WD 40 alllllllll around carb base looking for a vacuum leak sucking air but never found one,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,sprayed a ton of gumout in the intake for like 5 mins at idle n wide open,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,checked bolt tightness of carb to engine (all tight) BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT IT STILL ACTED UP. Sooooooooooooo I mowed with it quite a bit and all of a sudden its much better Soooooooooooooooooo maybe all that gumout finally cleaned up the problem?????????

If it acts up again Im haulin it to my buddys mower shop this fall, Im sure its nuttin money cant fix cuz I dont seem to be smart enough to fix it cuz theres no freakin adjustment screws to be found grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
