2008 VMax 150 carbed. motor ran fine until a month ago-started getting hard to start and rough idle, so replaced plugs, started better but idles rough even after warmed up. When I push down on key while putting down canal, rpm jumps 1000 up and motor sounds and runs great for about 1 minute then goes back to rough, then push key choke again and then runs fine.
Before I tear down the carb covers and spray the heck outta it with carb cleaner (which means trailer it and unscrew all covers to get at carbs), I wanna know if it's possibly an electrical choke issue or probably (hope) just a sticking choke which will be good when cleaned real well with carb cleaner spray. Motor runs fine at WOT or anywhere in between. Plugs are gapped correctly (0.40).
