GL1100I carb issue

[strebor777]

I had my Carbs rebuilt on my 1981 GL1100I Goldwing. Was running fine but carbs had not been rebuilt since 2016. Had them professionally done. After it was done, I still had my False Tank and Seat off. I started it and tested revving and seems to be fine. The next day I put the tank and seat back on. I fired it up and came right up. As soon as aI started to crank the throttle it would start to hesitate and die. I checked my Filer, replaced some old Fuel lines, put fresh gas in. No change. If I pull the choke it will idle up fine and stay stable, but when using the throttle with choke off it would die. Issue same when I took a little ride up the alley. Would go 30 yards and stall. I am at a loss as to what could be wrong.


Any ideas would be helpful.

Thank-you

please clarify ... the carbs were rebuilt in 2016 and then rebuilt recently ?

[winguyjo]

if rebuilt recently, when ? and did the bike sit unused after the most recent rebuild ? if so, for how long ?

The Carbs were rebuilt last Wednesday.

that being the case, all i can think is that there is a problem with the slow jets, but that doesn't jive with the carbs having just been serviced. hopefully someone else can provide some insight.

Thanks for the reply. I'll see if anyone else has any ideas.
