Why does sportster 1200 sputter at 30 miles an hour?
if it runs ok above 30, suspect bad carb main valve or dirty float bowl.

You float is stuck in the up position. Inside the bowl in the carb.
Why Does My 1987 Nissan Z24 Engine Runs Only at Maximum RPM?
do you mean it doesn't run unless you romp on it or that when it runs it maxes out the rpms? if it always runs at max rpm then your throttle is stuck, remove the air filter housing and spray the cable and connective parts (back of carb) with carb cleaner... if you mean it doesn't run unless you take it to max rpm then you probably need to get a carb kit for it (be sure to see if its a spark plug or timing issue first)
You are having problemes with your Honda aero carb fuel just runs out tube at bottom of carb how do you adjust float or is it something else?
The float is stuck in the OPEN position. Try sharply rapping on the float bowl several times with a non -metallic object. Screwdriver handles work great for this. I seriously doubt that the float went out of adjustment all by itself. Worst case scenario - take the float bowl off and spray carb cleaner around inside.
Why does oil leak into gas on lawn mower?
Inlet needle in carb sticking open; it runs in through the carb.
What would cause my 2000 dodge neon to run like the gas peddle is floored when it isn't. It runs this way at all times?
Most likely the cable running from the peddle to the carb is seized or possibly the carb is just stuck open. Easy way to find out is to remove the intake hose from the carb and see if the gate is open or closed. Open is full throttle. Troubleshoot from there.

I have an 83 Chevy scottsdale truck with a 350 auto runs great until you put it in gear seams to be like its loadin up but if you floor it it runs fine what might it be?
check the ammount of gass an air entering you carb that could be why it runs that way all you have to do is adjust the screws on the front of your carb it would be smart to put some carb cleaner in it too

Why does fuel shoot out of the top of a rochester 2 barrel carb?
Possibly the float is stuck or the needle valve is stuck or has dirt in it. Clamp off the fuel line going to the carb so no new fuel can get in. Start the vehicle & run it till it runs out of fuel. By doing this if you're lucky whatever is stuck in the valve may sink to the bottom of the bowl. Unclamp the fuel line after the engine runs out of fuel and restart the engine. Hopefully it will now be o/k and save you having to disassemble the carb. If it still does it, it's time to disassemble and while you're at it you might as well put in a kit.
