Yes! I went with a Factory Pro jet kit because everyone said the springs were a waste and would often cause the engine to bog under early throttle.
Sounds to me that a carb clean and cable adjustment is now due.
Good luck and keep on enjoying your bike!

Charles,
I'm attaching a document with all the stuff I copied and pasted from the mailing list back in the day. Buried somewhere in there is probably the answer to your question. My recollection is that the stock springs were preferred to the DynoJet springs.
Regards,
Paul in Alabama

This goes way back and I am trying to remember some things about the Dynojet installations.
My GPZ has gotten to where it's not running cleanly at low RPM's and is getting harder to start. It has a brand new battery so that is not the issue. In addition, my throttle has been slow to return for years, but has now also gotten harder to turn. I have had the handlebar assembly apart and found nothing so I'm pretty sure the issue is with the carb linkage sticking. All of this has made me decide to do a thorough carb clean this winter and to correct the throttle issues. I will also replace the rubbers between the airbox and carbs with new, softer ones as they are still available.
My question for the group is this. Back in the day when everyone was installing these kits, I remember the consensus was to use the stock carb springs, not the ones in the Dynojet kit. I seem to remember the throttle response was supposed to be better down low with the stock springs. Can someone refresh my memory on this? I am pretty sure mine has the Dynojet springs as the kit was installed by Donnie at Performance Cycle back when he still had a repair shop. Unfortunately, the OEM springs are NLA, so I will have to see if I can find a set somewhere if that is the case.
Regards,
Charles S.
