[QUOTE="SRAD97750, post: 130869, member: 425"] 1981 Yamaha IT175 I acquired from a buddy, shortly after I did the top end he needed money for rent. A new iron horse in my stable. Probably a decent scoot for my girlfriend who weighs 100lbs soaking wet. Anyways, I took it out for a ride. Runs out of fuel after about a 1/2 mile of full throttle riding. Then fills the bowl in 45 seconds and will start for you and run for another 1/2 mile before sputtering out. I think the petcock is clogged or falling apart and not allowing enough fuel through for full throttle desert romps. It runs great around the back yard, where I don't think I ever use the fuel in the bowl fast enough. Enough said, time to wrench... -BIG DAN:thumb: [ATTACH=full]14342[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
