Default little help diagnose

i want to check with you guys before i buy engine crank seals for my G1.

it used to (a few months ago) just need the choke when you first took off for like 10ft. now it needs it like ALL the time to run up in its rpms. it doesnt get up to the top speed it did before either. it has gotten progressively worse.

sound like it needs engine crank seals? I also just rebuilt the engine about 2 tanks of gas ago so its good. and i havent messed with anything on the cart as it has gotten worse i wanted to see how it acted on its own

Sounds like its getting a lot of extra air in the mix. Bad cranks seals are a good bet. I'd give it the old wd40 spray test.
