For any engine to run at certain speed, enough air has to be entering engine to support that speed. Couple of areas that may introduce more air than necessary:

1. choke
2. idle-speed adjuster too tight and opening throttle too much
3. throttle-cable too tight and keeping throttle open
4. vacuum-leak in carb/boots or somewhere after throttle


As for dying when you open throttle, yeah, that sounds like fuel-flow circuits in carbs are clogged and not metering fuel to match extra air-flow.
I'm debating ordering a k&n filter and tossing the airbox. Thats usually the route that ive gone on all the pre-gens ive had because the airbox is a pain.

That said, any suggestions on jet sizing and carb settings for pod filters and stock exhaust?
