I have an '83 Venture that I got from my Dad. Has just under 17K miles on it, and due to an ankle fusion on right leg, I have been unable to ride it the past four years. I've stored it in my heated shop and that's how my dad stored it as well. I decided I might as well sell it, but it seems to be having carb problems. I can fire it up and it will run half-choked AND as long as I don't give it any throttle. Twist the throttle and it dies. I've only ran 91 premium with no ethanol and I did put Sta-bil in it as well. I have fired it up every year I haven't ridden it and it idled and ran fine until this summer. I've given it some shots of carb cleaner to no avail. I'm not a carb mechanic by any means and my right foot is in a cast again due to more surgery needed on it. Is there anything I can do without taking it in to a shop - right now I can't even load it on a trailer. Thanks in advance.
