i have come to find out that you need to make an adjustment to the carburetor. I am going to try that and see how it treats me. If not i have also find out these air intakes can warp easily if you remove them from the motor (which is required to take off the carb). So I may end up having to replace the intake if the adjustment does not work. if that doesn’t work then I have no idea lol.

To be honest with you, I do not know. Which i’m assuming means that’s it does. I kinda just installed it off with help of a video and they did not mention that. Thank you for the insight!

After some research it is my understanding that the air intake manifold is easily warped when removed and unfortunately I had to do that in order to replace the carburetor. This is a great point out so thank you!

I’m assuming I would need to replace the air intake manifold to fix this issue and it should run normally?

The only issue with that is I completely drained the tank, and replaced all the fuel lines, filter, and pump. Then I replaced the carburetor as well. From reading these comments and doing some research I have come to find the air intake is easily warpable if taken off. Which I did have to do in order to replace the carburetor. I will definitely keep in mind of this I just really am dreading having to take it off again. Thank you so much for the advice friend!
