have you tried to rebuild and clean yours?

I have one but it needs rebuilt most likely... although the engine was running before the bottom end fell apart... I am not sure how it was running prior to this because thats how I bought it.

i believe that it is the wrong carb because the linkage that goes to the accelerator pump does not allow the accelerator pump to give more fuel when ithe throttle is fully engaged and it just bogs down when you try to put it in gear and take off

I hate to tell you this but the stock carbs on all of the LUV's suck at best. Very few people have any luck rebuilding them, your money is better spent on a Weber replacement.
