If you do I would really appreciate it being sent to [email protected]

The person I bought it from changes the spark plugs the day before he took me out to show it worked. An the Water pump was just replaced as well.... new gas."

BUT I did run Seafoam through the gas tank twice and BOOM... ... ... Problem solved.

The engine is running really good.

I do notice that when at half throttle it does occasionally have the tendency to want to slightly rev up, but when at WOT there doesnt seem to be a problem, any thoughts?"
