91 mojave. i have 130main 55 pilot needle on 3rd clip. i live at 750ft. the 55 was stock and that seems high because i saw on internet that stock was 30 but that did not give elevation.It will start with new plug but dies out in few minutes. Plug is black.I also have k+n filter. Air fuel mixture screw is 2 turns. Also has a dg pipe.

clip to adjust the float musthave gotten bent.The float was pushed all the way down.Bent it back so the flat part was level with bottom and know is running and idling. still not tuned all the way in yet.
now it runs 5 minutes dies out and end of plug is white.The second it stalls I turn the screw on the bowl and no gas comes out.The motor sports shop by my house said the float is probobly still the problembut i wonder if i should put the 134 back in also.


Read some of the older messages from gaff telling that the kits ideas of134 main where to rich. he was right . between the float being off and working down toa 122 main. I finally got her to run. still need to fool with air fuel mixture screw but not much.

You are gonna have to play with pilot. I would go about three sizes leaner just as a starting point.

Different brand carbs have different numbers. I run a 32.5 in my CR250. You should just go down to your local motorcycle shop, I prefer a repair shop over a dealer, & get one or two sizes down. It is a good idea to take your pilot jet with you to make sure it looks the same. Some brands have a variety of jet styles. I would skip the next size down & buy the next two. For instance, if the next size is a 50, & they run increments of 5, then get the 45 & 40. Start off with the 45 & go from there.
