Correct Jets? Please help!

Hey guys,
First i would like to thank all of you for puting together an amazingly helpful forum and for helping with everything i've needed so far.
Having said that... I have another problem. I just got my 98 savage and its running like poo. I drained the gas and checked the petcock and the niether of those are the culprit. Pretty much in any gear under any load past 1/8 to 1/4 throttle, she sputters and backfires badly. I took the carb apart when i got home today. It seems as thought the previous owner put a 155 main jet and a 55 pilot jet in there. I also noticed that the full size spacer white spacer was on the needle jet. I have read things about people removing or reducing that spacer. What setup (jets/spacer) is going to work best on the bike so it won't backfire and sputter under any load????
In case it matters, the bike has a jardine exhaust, and cone air filter on it. Thanks very much guys, any help will be welcome and much appreciated.

1st I'm gonna say... openning several posts for the same issue/bike/time frame don't help us help you.
I had bring up all your posts to find out about your bike.
And now I'm gonna quit here and go to the other thread.

I'm sorry for not posting to your liking
I wasn't trying to make it more difficult. Since i had narrowed down the problem i was trying to make it easier to help me, rather than having to read through everything irrelivant from the other post... sorry.

What is your altitude? It can/will have a major effect on jetting requirements.
