    Mitsuzero our truck Mikuni carbutetors are a little different as well as other stuff a little different ~ try not too feel bad & don't give up ~ even after rebuilding my Mikuni carb new fuel pump all filters new dist cap rotor plugs wires all new MY TRUCK still has similar issues that you are experiencing ~ I think the often happening little miss mostly at low rpm in 2nd gear is fuel related because if I floor the accelerator it clears right up PLUS no other regular misfires happen when driving my truck ~ and the darn engine even has a brand new cylinder head too $÷&[,"#×%

    Just try more trouble shooting testing etc & try not too spend to much $$ on parts if possible ~ don't give up these little trucks come in really handy & a new truck is so expensive ~ I use NON Ethanol gas (make sure the catalytic convertor is NOT plugged


    Best of luck

    Well I have very good news, in the process of driving my truck around it finally decided to start idling out of the blue. I guess the idle circuits were gummed up and a mixture of fresh gas and fuel treatment with the heat of driving helped free it up. Thank you to everyone who contributed advice

    Great News ~ I should silicone spray the outside of my stock Mikuni carburetor once more; just to see if it causes the engine to run better like it did the one time I did it before...
