Redcat 70 ATV. I need help. brand new, no power
I just bought a new Redcat 70 ATV for my daughter. It runs great until she is sitting on an incline it will barely pull uphill from a stop. It is fully automatic and I checked several things. Can't figure out the problem. She weighs 60 pounds so it should pull her no problem. Any ideas other than carb adjust, removing restrictor from exhaust, change oil, regap plug. not sure what else I have tried.
Thanks,
Mike

I bought my son a redcat 90 and me and mt dad had to open up the carb and clean the whole thing I could not have done it but he is pretty sharp anyhow I am pretty sure that the jet is the deal that has a bunch of needle sized holes in it and gas shoots out them holes regardless of what it is called my dad cleaned each on of those holes and the thing had a lot more power after that my son hasn't rode it yet but it pulled me up a hill pretty easy and I weigh 160

The restrictor screw was not even installed. the throttle is not restricted. If you lift the back wheels off of the ground, it screams. Just no power. Actually I think the clutch is wasted. I took the carb off and apart. It was clean. A compression test showed about 100 (with an old tester) but it starts right up and runs great on flat ground so I think the engine/carb is fine.
Is there a way to adjust the clutch? I saw a few little pieces of what looked like it could be clutch or gasket material when I changed oil.
