Default Small problem after jetting

I rejetted the needle today, Not spacers or washers came out,just the white clip looking thing and the needle,so i installed the new adjustable needle and set air mixture to spec and put my super trap back on. now when it idles it sounds like it cams. kinda idles up and down? Where is the problem out. Which part of the carb to I need to readjust!!

Thanks

Yes. Some get away with adjusting while the machine is running (depending on your tools) Could be an air leak as well. Re check your boots on either end.

Main seems ok but I dont know if you'll need the needle to be that rich, usually you can get the Idle with the pilot (as mentioned). How many disc's are you running?

Cool CK. Sounds like you got it! I dont know much about jetting the needle, mine you can adjust. My plug is very black. Carb is all stock. There are some great reads on here about it though. Better to have a little black on the plug to be safe. Sounds like the cat is better than ever!
