Well after a month of having everything that could prevent the old abandoned girl from starting/running – clutch switch bypass, starter relay, complete carb rebuild, spark plug, (cheap) coil, new battery, exhaust leak (thanks to Dave for the header hookup!), etc., I got her running and driving. Serowbot’s carb tuning for beginners helped tremendously! But I have a question: she will ONLY run (with any sized jets installed) with the air fuel mixture screw all the way IN - and in tight. Half to a full turn out and she dies…even at a higher idle speed. That can’t be normal, is it? I am suspecting the cheap Ebay carb rebuild kit did not have the proper sized mixture screw (it also came with a size 200 main jet and unmarked pilot jet!) and I may need a stock replacement. For reference I have a pod filter and an open header. I currently have the carb jetted to 157.5/57.5 but have only had her out 2 times and it backfires quite a bit. I get that I may have to play with the carb jetting more but the fuel mixture screw has me stumped.
