Working on a 99 Warrior, Runs fine as long as the choke is on but as soon as
you turn off the choke it dies. Any ideas? Someone told me that the pilot needle has trash in it?

 

Anybody? Anybody?

 

either your a/f adjustment is way to lean or pilot jet is clogged or to small, how far out is the a/f screw? Does the bike run good in mid and top rpm with the choke off?

 

It dies as soon as the choke is turned off, where is the a/f screw, is that the one on the bottom of the carb?

 

yah, turn it out one full turn adjust idle and see if that helps

 

I will try that as soon as i get home from work, i really do not want to take the whole carb off i can get away with it. I am also replacing the axles bearing tonight, the original ones where completely gone! Thanx i will post if that corrects the problem.

 

those axle bearings are a bigger job than you think.

 

what did you mean by that?

 

I hope your bearings came out easier than mine did. I bent my axle and had to replace it but if it wasn't bent before I started then it would have been after I was done. I had to take a sledge hammer to beat the axle out. Would have used some heat but ran out of O2.
I'm thinking of removing my axle each year just to clean it. I hate so spend $400. each time I bend the axle.

 

Before you started working on it did u submerge it in any water because u might have water in the tank, it was really weird my mojave did the same thing after i submerged it in a big hole.
