Open that carb up and make sure it is clean and clear of debrise. Quality control has been an issue with there carbs.

Quality control is supposedly a thing of the past.

They ARE nice to look at, but Mine never ran good, needle/seat-flooding issue that I couldnt fix. Off'd it and got a TQ of all carbs. Idled better and had more CFM's to boot. And it was $300 cheaper! Does Summit even sell these anymore? Seems they were so fed up with returns that they dropped the line, or maybe it was Jegs..or just a vicious rumor...
