Sounds like your throttle bodies are in need of a service. Pay close attention to your pilot screws as they control the fueling of the bike from start up to around 4,000rpms

Check for vacuum leaks around the carb. intake boots. If there are no leaks take carbs apart and clean the main and intermediate jets. you may have to possibly rejet it with different size jets. Have you made any changes to the bike's engine or exhaust?

SOURCE: wont run /idle

i'd start with removing the carbs and giving them a thorough cleaning as when bikes sit for so long, the carbs begin to get gummy/varnished from the old gas.

check for blocked holes in the pilot jet & main jet and look for "hard & dried up" gas in passages. be careful of the float bowl gasket as to not tear it or you will need a replacement.

SOURCE: 1988 Kmx 125`hits short flatspot /stutter at 8000 revs

You changed the back pressure in the exhaust and that is what causing your problem either put the washer back in or have the carb properly jetted

SOURCE: missfire on kawasaki zx6r j1 after mini service,

Are all the plugs properly tightened & are all the leads on properly give them all agood firm push occasionally they can feel like they are on & besitting lose on top is the air filter element sitting correctly It may be causing an obstuction of the air intake if you have used an after market air filter it could be that it is heavier than the standard item & restricting air flow

I have an A5 3.0TDI which has a flat spot when

Can you describe what you mean by "flat spot"? Do you mean that there is par of the rev range where there seems to be little power? Turbo engines tend to produce bursts of power when the turbo spools up. Does the "flat spot" happen at low revs? If so, your turbo isn't spooled up yet. As you accelerate and it fires up you feel a rush of power. just a guess, provide more details and we'll try to help

Nissan Primera 1.8 V reg. EML on perm and flashes especially on start up, wont exceed 4k revs, is very jumpy in 1/2/3 rd gear, hills very slow.. 40-50 at best, sparks replaced and coil pack changed......

The codes need to be read. This will point you in the right direction. But just guessing , it sounds like a throttle position sensor. But there are other sensors that could do this. Again have the codes read. Most parts stores do this for free.

Maytag PAV2300AWW, REV. 17, will not spin. Motor

ALWAYS UNPLUG YOUR DRYER BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO DO ANY WORK ON IT.
Sounds like your problem may be a broken belt, or the belt may have slipped off of the motor pulley, or idler arm pulley. If you have to replace your drum belt and if you have a front loading machine. Remove the electrical console that holds the timer switch, start switch, etc. from the top of the dryer. Be real careful not to knock any of the wires off of the timer switch. Then remove the top of the dryer. Remove the front of the machine, this will expose the belt and drum, remove the drum and belt and this will expose the drum rollers, idler arm bracket with pulley, and motor with pulley. Pay attention to the route of the belt, this will come in handy when you go to reinstall the belt and drum. Sometimes the belt will slip off of the idler arm or motor causing the drum not to turn. While you have the drum out, I would recommend that you lubricate the drum rollers at the shaft of the roller with a good grade of machine oil like 3 in One oil. This will save you a problem later with the rollers getting noisy, also check your drum rollers for flat spots, if they have flat spots on them this will cause a noise like a thumping type noise. You will need to replace the drum rollers if they have flat spots on them. I will include these two websites for parts and further help:

Good luck, I hope this helps
