I was wandering if anyone could tell me the purpose of the accelerator pump on the carb mine sticks.
Thanks any info is greatly appreciated.
 
It's used to increase throttle response by squirting a jet of gas into the intake when you quickly open the throttle. Seems that it sticking is a very common problem, mine just started sticking randomly and constantly gave me headaches, hell it even caused me to crash into a ditch at one point. :p I never really did figure out what was wrong, instead I just swapped the carb.
 
Mine sticked as well. It got cough up on the carb seal. The rubber seal was in the way of the opening so I just oiled up the seal real well and but a heavier spring in the pump (from a pen) and it works just fine now.
