Would running no air filter on a LT 185, would cause to less of a vacum to run the fuel pump. I belive my problem is not enogh fuel but i am not positive. It doesn't idol to well, but once it does it idol, it idols so high almost red lineing it, and then i have to kill the engine. and i have to pump the trottle really fast to keep it going in first. it runs ok in 2nd 3rd, but 4th it bogs down when you give it gas. any ideas thanks

try a new spark plug and I wouldnt run a motor any way without a filter but the vacum is created after the carb befor the engine, make sure all the vacum lines are good to.

sounds like it is running way too lean, you really need to throw a filter on there

No filter would make it run like crap, which would make you think there's something wrong with the fuel pump.
