Here is what it is doing:
1. Most of the time, it will not start without a small squirt of starting fluid in the carb intake. I know this isn't recommended.
2. If I ride it at 60-70 MPH for just a couple miles, it starts losing power and bogging down on me. If I pull over, put the valve on prime for a minute, it runs fine again. If I keep the speed under 55, it doesn't seem to have this issue.
3. It acts like it is out of gas after 1 - 1 1/2 gallons of gas is gone. I have to fill it every 50-80 miles, but there is only a gallon or so gone. Gas mileage seems to be OK (around 50mpg); but the bike acts like it is out of gas much too soon.
The vacuum tubes seem have no kinks in them & are snug on the carb.
All this is manageable and I'm able to ride, but it is quite annoying!
If anybody has areas to look into, I would appreciate it.
Thank you!
