Just got a 1980 cm400t.
Was barely running and had sat for a long time. New coil pack, cdi box, battery, and wiring. Problem came when I rebuilt the carb and acceleration pump. After rebuilding it idles fine and at low rpms throttles fine, but if I crank the throttle back fast or hard it gets stuck and just idles constantly. If i turn it off and back on it goes back to normal idle, normal running until i throttle it up high. Then gets stuck again. The cables are fine and arent getting stuck and I dont know what else it could be, she sounds great and alot better but this makes it impossible to even ride. Help please.
