Need help with an '04 PW80 - won't run off the choke

[QUOTE="Baker1, post: 1058854, member: 69626"] Thanks Bags. I pulled the entire carb off the bike tonight; went thru it again: pulled everything out of it, used carb cleaner and compressed air. Moved the needle clip from 3 to 4 (richest setting). It runs fine now. Whew! I mispoke in my first post: my main jet is a 120 for 4000' elevation. The 125 is the standard factory jet. There is no washer or oring for the pilot air screw; just the spring. FYI - the choke is not a choke, per se. It's an enrichment circuit. It pulls a "stopper" off of a fuel orifice that allows fuel to enter both sides of the throat. When I saw that, I knew that I must be starved for fuel when flipping the "choke" off. So I moved the clip to the 4th position (odd) and she runs fine now. Kids are stoked. Life is good. That's the first time ever I've had to set a needle clip at either extreme. [/QUOTE]
