Check your timing, dizzy and cam.
how do i check my timing?

just rotate the dizzy alittle? b/c i put a new dizzy on it b4 it started doing this
You mean it accelerates, but no power?

Mine was doing that and I changed the spark plugs which fixed it.
well its an hf so it has no pwoer lol but ya something like that it accelerates really really slowly and gurgles the whole way up

I thought that was normal for a HF :wink:
ok well i just went out and messed with it, i can't get anything on the damn top bolt i don't know how i did it b4, keep in mind i am working with limited tools mine are at my gmas

the 2 lower bolts were hands loose damn it

anything input?
Clogged fuel lines or fuel filter could do that too
how much will that set me back?
i put a new filter on it already
ok well new news.... if there was anyother

i see leaking coming from the fuel filter, is it posible that its loose and air getting in the lines is making it do that?
anymore input?

I'd say thats a good possibility if you can actually see fuel leaking! That means not all the fuel is making it to your engine. I'd replace those lines, ASAP, for safety purposes.
kaboom haha

ya i am goingt o tighten them tomrow when i get time
One thing about fuel filters: If for any reason you have to reuse the old washers, make sure you reference both of them when you remove them. They have to go back on the same side, turned the same way as they came out or the connection can leak. I've done it before and couldn't get it to seal for jack. I then inspected the wear/crush pattern on the washers, repositioned and problem fixed.
You can also heat up copper washers with a torch (and let them cool) if you want to reuse them. Usually though, new filters should come with new washers. If you ask at the Honda dealer, they will give them to you for free.
