Installed needle and seat today- now problem
I installed a new needle and seat in my 02 Warrior today- the old one was shot and wouldn't shut off fuel so it was dumping fuel in the overflow tube as soon as I turned the gas on.
I started it up when I was done and it started easy, idled good, etc. If I eased the gas on, it revved up fine. If I tried stabbing the gas quick from idle, it stalled immediately. A couple times, it would die and then make a weird inhaling sound like it was gasping for air. Does the float need to be adjusted because of the new needle and seat? I got the parts from a brand new Moose rebuild kit I just bought last week. Thanks, |
sounds like you put the needle on the wrong notch

The needle should be notched and have a movable clip installed on the middle notch if you are all stock.
Also, check your accelerator pump as it sticking can cause issues when stabbing the throttle. Specifically, It's the little spring that sticks out when you take the float bowl off. Make sure the spring is ok and isn't getting hung up. |

They are talking about your main jet needle. float needle and seat only adj. is the float itself. you might have some crud in your idle circut/low speed jet you might want to pull the bowl back off and check.

low speed jet is probably all you need to worry about. there is diagrams on here of the carb. I've seen them just not sure where they are at. the jet should be the place where anything would get caught. but you could pull the jet and spray carb. cleaner where the jet goes this should clean the idle circuit.
