Needle valve? There is a black boot that goes between the jet holes and the bottom of the bowl but I don't put it in.

 

The black rubber tip on the float needle valve.

 

Oh..Ok..I'm sure I've seen them w/o the rubber tip.

 

Lt80, me too, but in other atvs. What EBay carb do you use on your bikes? I can't get it out of my head that it's in the carb. Especially, since someone else has already been in it.

 

I just looked on ebay, I think they are all the same.
I'd prolly get the cheapest.
I've prolly got 6 or better with no problems.

 

Update: after pulling carb for about the 10th time, I just wasn't convinced that it was up to a 100% especially seeing that some one else had been in it before. So I ordered an eBay carb for $59 and just installed. She runs like new now. While at it I shaved the head and removed 2 rollers in the clutch. It pulls my 240lbs fairly nice and with my 60lb 6 yr old it has tons of pep! Thanks for all the suggestions and help in getting this thing running again!

 

Glad to see ya got it straightened out. Now it will be a little less this �� �� and little more this ��
