yeah, its a sensor on the gas tank that senses the extra weight and pinches off the flow of fuel thru the injectors

strange, never heard of that problem before, I can't think of any reason why not, is it possible you're not giving it full gas since your leg is right there by the clipon? Try high chairs next

this is actually probably the closest correct answer. your weight on the tank is probably pinching a vacuum line or something
