    150 blk max starting issue

    I have an 89 150 blk max xr4, for a while when I choked it it would fire OK but if it died I couldn't get it to start again choke or no choke unless I open the throttle a little. The last time I went out I couldn't get it to fire to save my life no matter what I did. When I choked it I could...

    Black max dies

    My 88 blk max xr4 150 hp has great power, it accelerates great, it will idle all day in neutral, but as soon as you put it in gear it dies.

    Black max trim question
