i recently cut my stock fuel line so it wasnt as long and bulky. big mistake! it started doing this stuttering thing where it stutters really fast when im turning and going over bumps, almost like there is small air bubbles in the line. so, i changed the fuel line to neon orange line about 2.5ft long and wrapped it around the arm of the rollhoop. still same problem. then i put the neon 2.5ft line back wrapped up into the way it was stock, and it still does it, but a little less. what the hell is going on? does my line have leaks or something? is the tank leaking? thanks for the help.

I dont think its your fuel line. The only thing longer fuel line will do is allow the extra fuel thats in the lines into the motor when its upsidedown. Long or short wont make a diffrence in engine performance.

I think the problem is your tunning. It could be the tank so i would check that also just in case.

Also, do You have a fuel filter? If so it might just be clogged.

fuel filter is clean. if the case was tuning... would i need to richen or lean it out?

Sounds like you need to richen it. From what you describe its a lean miss. Just richen it up 1/16-1/8 turn at a time. Your tank could also have a leak. That will do the same thing.

sounds like you have an air leak in the fuel line which causes the engine to run lean, cant think of a reson why it would suddenly develop a leak all of a sudden though, first thing i'd try before anything else because it's easiest is take the fuel filter out and see how she does, if not make sure the fuel tank is sealing properly.
