Re: new needle valve could be sticking?
Jake, I have found that this is a result of ethanol in the Gasoline. I have the same trouble in my forklift- I finally bought non-ethanol at a local station after I got tired of having to take the carb top off. Id recommend that you buy some "stabil" and put in your tank to lube the needle and seat- HTH
