Noob question, please advise!

Hello.
First off I'd like to say I'm really grateful this site exists. I figured out almost all of my issues through just looking up posts.
Here is my issue...
When I'm at a stop, especially up hill,after I release the clutch and hit the throttle, I'll get three solid chugs before it "kicks in"... When it's doing the chugging it's hard to pedal, but if I power through it it runs fine. Does this mean I'm running too Rich?
Am I just driving it incorrectly? Do I have to be pedaling and in motion to use the gas?

The "Chugs" are most likely the rpm dropping to low under load and the engine trying to over come the load. Just let the clutch out a little slower and use a little more gas...you will get used to it and you'll find the sweet spot of how much throttle and how much clutch let off simultaneously.

More details about the bike and your setup may help with figuring out what exactly your issue is. What sprockets are you running, and on what wheel size? Is it a 2 stroke or 4 stroke kit. If a 4 stroke, what drive type is it running? If a 2 stroke, what engine is it? What carb is on it?

t's a yd100. 2stroke.i believe it's a 32 tooth sprocket.
26 inch tires.
Currently I have a cheap 'racing" carb (from Amazon) 66 size jet.
I can post a picture of the carb when I get off of work in a half hour or so.
I have a really nice Dellroto clone I'd like to put on it as soon as time permits

I believe with a 32 tooth rear sprocket, you should pedal the bike to help with take offs from a stop.

I think on a 32 tooth rear sprocket it would be hard on the yd-100 on take offs from a stop without pedaling.

I don't think that is a yd100 it looks like your regular old cg.

Like above post suggests, more gas, slower on the clutch movement. We're talking 2 seconds or so here on the clutch handle movement. Try it.

Really? What does "cg" mean? Chinese garbage? Lol.
Maybe that's why none of the cylinder heads I have ordered fit.
I did notice that the stroke arm (sorry I'm not sure if that's what it is called) did say yd/100 stamped in the metal
Are there other ways to tell without tearing it apart?
I overpaid for this bike as it is, I'm going to be so livid if I didn't actually get what I paid for.
Thanks in advance

The yd100 and ld100 are similar engines. Vut a 32t sprocket is pretty tall even for the phantom 85
