Default jetting problem

128 was the biggest the kit came w/ and im running a 124 right now... but i have another problem(switched the needle e clip up to groove #4, seeing if that would fix it) and i adjusted the screw which i thought was fuel mixter... but it wasnt-think i might have been a bleed line.... so i hooked up my gas tank and turned it on and leaked... so i tighted the screw as far as it could go... and its still leaking.... any ideas? quad wotn start up either

keep going down on your main untill she stops sputtering. simple and easy fix. Plus shel be alot faster[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] And ummm Im pritty positive that if you screw OUT the air screw it will be even richer. If you need to know how to set that just ask me.....

You are most likely still running rich. Good news you fixed the prob with the arm/linkage etc.

Follow the above advice on dropping the main jet size till the bog goes away. did you clean the filter?

Also after (not b4) you get the current bog problem fixed with the right size main then try dropping the needle clip down one more (raising the needle) and see what that does from 1/4 to 3/4 throttle. If it runs better leave it there if its worse or bogs raise it back etc.

Sounds like your allmost done [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

dude seriously wtf is your problem, sparx is right at least he's trying, not everybody knows every little fu@king thing about the engine and how to do everything you got to start sometime don't you? S#it i dont either the forum is a good place to learn. at least hes trying to learn, that's the main reason for this forum is to get help when you need it and to talk to people about quads. You dont need to come on here bashing people, especially with your first post. Either leave the forum or take your pms pills and settle down, ***.
