could be a blockage in one of the carb jets, are you running fuel filters?
it might be worthwhile removing the float bowls. if there is any crud in the bottom of them, remove the carbs and clean thoroughly. Blow through the main jet once removed rather than running a wire through them though.

i wish the problem was that simple. i actually dismantled the carbs and cleaned them thoroughly.
i am going to the store today to buy some liquid wrench to remove some screws and see if i cant get a look into the engine.
