Hi

I have just changed a flame trap which was partly clogged and the small pipe was completely clogged.

Except from blowing the seals what effect can a clogged flame trap have on the motor performance?

Can the throttle have been polluted? and should I inspect it?

what about the small pipe - blocking it must have had some effect on the motor - but what effect ... or in other words why does both a small pipe and a wide pipe connect the flame trap to the air intake (and why to the different positions of the air intake system)?

thank you in advance.
