I just took the spring and needle off the carb the one that is attached to the throttle cable I played with the needle a little and it came loose inside the spring anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem

 

When i fixed my quads carb, i had the same problem, i fi were you i would just take it to a dealer and get it fixed. Me and my dad tried fixing it, but it just made it 10x worst. It only costs like 60 bucks to get your carb serviced and cleaned. Or at least somewhere around there.

 

id take a 6 mm and pull the bolt inside the slide then u will find the circlip inside the hole that click in the needle around the grooves to hold it in put it in the middle slot and put back together and see how it runs then pull plug if running rich rtry one groove up which lowers needle leaning it out if lean move one notch down raising the needle makin richer be sure not to forget to check it till right too lean could mean lots of money if you blow her up
