jeepman128 Posted August 8, 2006 Report Posted August 8, 2006 Well i just fought that same problem with mine as well. Mine was rich, where i think yours might be lean. If it runs better when the choke is on, that means it likes more fuel. Increase the pilot size until it will come off idle better and the mixture screw actually has significance. Maybe 52's??? By all means i am not a jetting expert, but i am just refrencing the pinned topics above this jetting forum. They were really helpful for me. Mine had the exact same bog, except mine didnt run any better with the choke on, it ran worse. I took it down a few sizes and now it runs perfect! Quote
dajogejr Posted August 8, 2006 Report Posted August 8, 2006 That I Do Than you should brush up on you carb jetting a little... :biggrin: PWK don't make a pilot smaller than a 35 for one (if they do, Sudco and Magic don't carry 'em), and if he pulls the choke and it gets better, he needs to go richer.... If he was riding around Mt. Rushmore or Mt. St. Helen at 10,000 feet, then he'd need something that lean... Lastly....the only other thing I can think of is this. Warm it up using old plugs. Put new plugs in, and hold the throttle (while going for a ride, gotta be under load) and keep it at or less than 1/8 throttle, look at the plugs. If they look ok, you need to start looking elsewhere... Quote
