    @declan a well, I mean if everything is installed correctly and the reeds etc are fine there shouldn't be a problem jetting it. Have you checked the spark plug? Perhaps it's the culprit?

      @declan make it fair and change to a decent plug. When you turn the screw in you get a richer mixture. (Less air) give the entire carb a good clean.

          Easiest way to figure out if its over fueling is to stifle the intake, if the problem worsens then you got too much fuel, if it improves then you haven't got enough fuel.

              @declan Yeah and risk the engine detonating or inhaling dirt. So you stifle the intake.

                    @calum I put a latex Glove over the snorkel it ran ok on idle but smoked loads and wouldn’t rev much it actually replicated the problem but on a worser scale so maybe the stock airbox is too restrictive? You can barely fit your pinky finger in the snorkel

                      @declan a latex glove! What??? Mate you justv want to lightly restrict the air flow not block it completely, you want something that breathes like a cotton sock.
