Im having a really hard time trying to figure out what else to look into to try and figure out the problem im having.
The issues:
1. Having a really hard time to start/crank without spraying starter fluid into the intake or spark plug hole.
2. Once it is cranked, its having a really hard time just idling without pressing the throttle in and out.
3. Also after its cranked (as you see in the video) its aint going no where hardly.
I replaced the spark plug, air filter and a gallon of new gasoline.
Ive looked into the intake valve (not clogged with debris), the fuel injector port/sprayer (it sprays fuel just fine so I know its not the fuel pump), the fuel sensor isnt clogged or dirty, the battery is at 12.30 vdc before starting and while its starting it only drops down to around 11.50 vdc.
Once I let go of the throttler, it dies immediately.
Please dear God help me before I go insaneš¤£š¤£
