Power loss
hey guys....82 12a, i had it stored for the winter....and i could not get it running. Today i poured a little gas down the carb and she started fine...choke pulled in and it warmed up, but then it would not idle....just die. So i got a friend to hold the throttle down and i sprayed carb cleaner down there while it was running. I could see the shots of gas from the jets also.
so i took it for a ride and it was riding good. I have noticed though that i have some power loss at high revs. It seems like the secondaries are not opening up. Is there a way i can test the secondaries?? Could it be a vacuum leak? Would removing the rat nest help??
I have recently changed the plugs, air filter, and fuel filter. Any suggestions??
Thanks in advance

I will check all of your suggestions today, and my fuel filter was just changed Kentetsu, but i will definately check the AAV hose. I do remember looking at my linkage and it looked more like the bottom pic...which is BAD.....ill post back later...thanks again

Well guys, my throttle return was wrong, and i fixed it
also, my anti afterburn #2 hose goes nowhere and is not hooked up and also, that little triangle elbow at the bottom of pic2 is hylomared and pinched off
looks like the previous owner went through a nest removal 1/2 assed, cause the nest is still there

ok, so the hose that comes out of the anti afterburn #2 that is supposed to go to the manifold is not hooked up. The spot at the manifold where it goes in is capped....do i have to cap the hose too??
PS, i finally got it started on its own today....i knocked the top of the bowls cause i think the needles were stuck. It also idles nicely @ 750/800RPM's
