Just got 400 foreman yesterday 1995 it's like new in a few hours I got it running but the carb must be all gummed up.choke needs to be all the way on to run, won't idle, backfires like crazy.so I joined the forum and was happy to see the discussion on carbs.im thinken just go with a new one. I am more concerned with reliability then oem or price I've rebuilt many carbs but was never truly satisfied with the results. Any suggestions?
