I have a 2005 Honda 350 Rancher ES that won’t run correctly.
I have replaced a bad carb with a new one, and it ran fine. Then I had someone use it and told me that it was not firing up again after running, and then he upped the rpms. I was getting fuel in the airbox due, I think, a bad float. Carb had been pulled and cleaned and I only used it a couple of times after that.
I changed the plug (which was the original), and it fires right up. I readjusted the idle speed. Idles fine, but I noticed that when I attached the hose to the airbox from the engine, all of a sudden i was getting throttle surge, idles fine.
I took the line loose, still getting throttle surge, removed the air cleaner, throttle surge.
Can a plug cause this if it isn’t exact on the gap?
Please help, I can’t afford to take it to a shop.
