Re: what happened?

For a more detailed response, the make and motor is needed. For a general response, it could be link and sync related as you say, could be the float is not set right and it runs out of fuel on acceleration, could be a clog in the high speed carburetor jet. A good thing is you got the motor to start and it idles well.

when i tore it all apart to clean them i didnt mess with any of the settings i took the carb off removed the bowl cleaned all that up, and i guess its the low pressure jet was what i removed and cleaned i even hooked fuel lines up with bowl off and pumped fuel through moving the floats to see if they werent allowing fuel but fuel was flowing when the float was down and quit when the float was up and the floats move freely the dont hang up in any position.
