I have a 1986 Suzuki GS450L and I am having trouble with the carb. It has been running OK but now every time I pull on the throttle is dies. There is a smell of gas and far as I can tell it is not getting enough air. I am wondering if there is anything I can do that might fix it. I wouldn’t mind getting a carburetor kit. Where can I get one and about how much would it be?
First check the air filter and make sure it's not full of junk..

I don’t think its the fuel filter its brand... This winter i wanted to rebuild the carb anyway where is a good place to get a kit? I just checked and it revs up but is chokes at 3k rpms. I have also tried to get the carbs synced but the right one never seemed to work right.
