Carb settings help
-
Hey guys I bought a new carb that was set up more for a 70cc but stuck it on my 50 and it worked good except it seemed rich since it had a low idle but I’ve raised the clip and it seemed too lean so I dropped it and now it seems low on power and the idle screw is all the way in just to maintain a decent idle am I rich lean or what I can’t quite tell.

Read that and you'll understand. There are separate components to alter each stage of throttle.

@oldman well it looked 40 years old and was visually worn out looked well used if I tried to ride the bike to set off I’d have to redline and ride the clutch then soon as I shift out of 2nd the bike would lose all power and come to a stop then would bog and stutter it seems better with the carb on the garden not tested the street yet
