Here's a possible solution to your tiller problem. Had the same issue with my Honda tiller. I cleaned and replaced every part I could think of with no success. I then discovered a small filter screen inside carburetor opposite the fuel inlet and next to diaphragm. Pulled it out with needle-nosed pliers and discovered gunk and trash underneath that was preventing a good gas flow. Cleaned it out thoroughly.and replaced the screen with a new one.Tiller runs like a top.

Ok I have r Royobi Tiller (30CC Gas) And last year it ran fine after rebuilding the Carb. This year it was "hard starts" Idles fine, (Tiny whisps of blue smoke in exhaust with correct ratio) Even seems to run better with the choke "on" but still...at idle only. as soon as I touch the throttle...its bogs down in tune with how much gas I give it. Little throttle? Little bog down, Little more throttle? Almost stalls, a normal throttle rev? it stalls dead! Then starts right back up again in 1 pull and idles fine again!? WTF? So after cleaning a clean carb again, (twice) and seeing no change I thought I'd go look at the original diaphragm and compare it with the rebuild kit diaphragm (which is the one in the carb.) And guess what? The replacement has a larger rivet by a factor of "2". So basically it was flooding the carb, I bent the needle tang down, better but no cigar. But I could rev it half way now. A second disassemble to bend it yet a bit further and Vrooom vroom vrooom ****! So check your needle valve even though you think its 100%. (Especially if you rebuilt the carb with a kit!)

Testimonial: "On my Honda mini tiller I took the two small fuel lines loose at the carb and connect to the fuel tank. I then sprayed WD 40 into them and gently blew air in both directions. That seem to solve the problem. The tiller ran good from then. Thanks a bunch "

    sound like you had a "Speck" o'dirt you got rid of. Same diff. it can hold the needle valve open too much and cause flooding.

1998 Dodge Stratus 2.4l bogs down suddenly while at cruising speed

You need to get the engine trouble codes by performing the "keydance" or using a code reader, then start checking fuel pressure at pump and regulator. Best luck. Amclaussen.

Rpm increases when you turn on the defrost fan

Nothing dangerous; using the defrost mode in most vehicles turns on the AC compressor to effect the drying out/removal of moisture. The compressor represents an additional burden on the engine which can bog down the idle speed so there is a compensator that should normally just prevent the engine idle speed from falling. Yours is just overcompensating and this may not be adjustable.

I have a 1999 jeep cherokee that has intermitant transmission problems 1)shifting up it wind out to 2k-3k before shifting 2) at higher speed it feels as if it slips out of overdrive rpm increase but speed...

It will shift out of overdrive upon increasing throttle , pulling hills and so on. Your overdrive probably kicks in around 35 to 45mph and kicks back out as you increase throttle. Electrically controled speed sensor to control the response. Overwise the engine would bog down to a stall. Over drive is just that. It changes the gearing ratio to over drive meaning less then final gear 4 to 1 down to 4 to 3 etc more direct drive ratio to lessen consumtion of fuel with less stress on engine. Have shift speed sensor adjusted. Don't drive in overdrive in city if most driving is under 45mph

Bogs down when shifts into 3rd gear and speed levels out

there are several possibilities. by bogging down do you mean the engine runs smooth but looses power? or does the engine/car start shaking and doesnt want to go any faster? if the engine runs smooth and doesnt seem to be shaking...can you hear a noise from the engine compartment? or a hi pressure noise from the rear of the vehicle - like a vacuum cleaner? if so then you probably have a plugged catalytic converter. if the engine seems to shake the van and looses power until you let up on the throttle slightly then you have a misfiring condition which can be caused by bad plug wires,plugs or a coil breaking down. as you shift up in gears the spark needed to each cylinder is increased and if you have bad plugs,wires or coil the spark wont get to the cylinder when it is needed. see if any of this sounds similar to your condition and request more info from me if ya like. good luck. carefull the converter can cause a fire if it gets too hot!

I have a poulan 2550 that won't idle what could be the problem?

try the L mixture screw, turn it in slightly if the engine speeds up it was too rich if it bogs down go out slightly un till it starts 4 stroking.

As a starting point both screws set to 1 turn out from just seated..if the high speeds ok dont touch the H screw.
