Throttle Response Problem Please Help
So I took my ninja out of winterization about a week ago, and upon inspecting it, I noticed that the throttle response is horrible, so bad that if you floor it quickly, the engine dies. Even if it doesn't die, the rpm's drop for 1-3 seconds and then they kick up like they are supposed to. What could be the issue here? Thanks for any help.
P.S there is old gas in the tank with seafoam in it. |

Your carb is gunked up. Seafoam is crap for leaving in the tank for extended time because it attracts moisture.
