Have a G14 giving me fits. Was low on compression, valve seat came loose from head. Put on new head, lapped and set the valves also new gaskets for head and carburetor. Compression now OK.
Problem is the engine starts right up and runs OK on low throttle without having to use the choke to keep it running. When you push the pedal down, the engine wants to bog down and dies. If you set the choke at 1/2 - 3/4, it runs just fine with the pedal all the way to the floor. Have tried cleaning and adjusting the jets without improvement.
If you loosen the pilot valve (I believe, the brass fitting with the slot and hole in the middle) it will run fine at high throttle without choke, but there's no way to keep that brass fitting set at the 1/2 way out position.
Any help / ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks!
