Today I made a gasket for the choke and closed it off completly to see if there was any difference.....none....still only get 1/2 throttle and then it sounds boggy. This carb has a bit bigger air intake than the old manual choke carb that came with it. Had to modify air filter connection.

I rechecked the valves and they are at 004. The gap on the plug is 023

It has fresh gas with no ethenol in it. Has lucas carb cleaner and dry gas in tank also. New gas filter and hoses and vacumn hoses.

Had a small oil leak on the head and made a new gasket for that.

Put in 14g slider weights. new belt and spring and clutch plates

Now with the carb....I have to set the idle at zero and play with the mixture screw and idle screw to get it to start then it idles nice. Rev it up and 1/2 way it starts to bog.
shut it off and wont start have to play with the screw again.

Where do I go from here other than buying a new atv?

also have a primer on order.

Again thanks so much for all the help guys
