    What's the best concert you've been to?

    The best concert I ever went to was probably Foo Fighters at Wrigley Field. The energy was insane, everyone was singing along, and Dave Grohl is just wild live.

I have read that this could be a carburetor(s) problem but would like to know how to diagnose the problem before I purchase 1 or more carburetor rebuild kits. If it is the carburetor(s)...
