Bogging down/ cutting out?

My spree keeps wanting to die if I full throttle it after starting, and bogs down if I hit bumps, or any impurities in the road? I know that when an engine is 'cold' you can't give it the full beans, depending on the engine, but this just started today (the dying from revving that is) However the bogging down has always been an issue, now its just a lot worse. This annoys me deeply, I haven't had time to check the sparkplug, but I am not sure if that is the problem. Thanks for any help!

Float level to high or to low or something loose that when you hit the bump creates an air leak.

check to see if the plug wire came loose or the wire that goes to the coil. most likely it will be the plug wire cap thats loose and worn.

Not simple questions, but stupid questions get treated as stupid.

Isn't the point of this place to ask questions? I believe that's what I was doing, stupid question or not.

How in the * am I or anyone else on here suppose to know where your vacuum leak is? We do not have the engine in front of us, you do, so ask a question that makes sense and is not just stupid. Why not get off your * and do some checking yourself, it is your engine.

No way? I have an engine? Holy s***! I haven't had time to look for a leak. I have been busy with that * * wiring. Perhaps you could have said areas where leaks could have been. I have already mentioned I am a newb at this s***...

Isn't it obvious where to start? The intake system from the carb to the crankcase. If it isn't there it could be crankshaft seals or a leak between the crankcase halves.

No it wasn't obvious where to start, hence why I asked. Thank you for finally telling me where to look however.

eaassssyy buddy, but yes, it sounds like it could be either loose wire or spark plug wire, or an airleak.

Yeah I will check those things out in the morning. Hopefully I find and fix the problem
