[QUOTE="E-DOGG, post: 145590, member: 24463"] [b]I give up[/b] Hey guys, Thanks for the suggestions, I really appreciate it. Well... at this point im about ready to try a new carb! After I let the bike completely warm up, (air filter removed) and held the thottle about 1/8 open to keep running (at a constant RPM)... 1) I screwed the idle speed screw althe way in, then almost all the way out. This had NO EFFECT on the idle speed or the mixture. (still holding throttle at 1/8 open) 2) I completely removed the air screw all together, this had NO EFFECT on the mixture or idle speed! (still hoplding at 1/8 open) the RPM's didn't even change!? 3) I tried putting the richer pilot jet back in, but again this had no effect. 4) I have leaned all of the jets a few steps leaner, and moved the needle clip leaner (not a new needle though), and still NO EFFECT. And just for grins :D I might try heavin the darn thing off a cliff! (That'l solve my problem) Thanks again for the suggestions, they are much appreciated. I think I might just try a new carb if i can find one cheap at a salvage yard, unless anyone has any idea what would cause these symptoms besides the carb (am I overlooking something?) [/QUOTE]
