Hey MVK! As mentioned previously, I would buy a replacement carb and intake gasket, before doing anything else-Gearhead437

Hey guys i had a spare 49cc pocket bike engine in my garage and decided to use the needle from its carb (i think it was like a huazeng or something like that, very similar to the BoFeng) and put it in my flooding BoFeng carb... It fixed the issue and now runs good! Still weird since the original needle had no damage and passed the "blow" test.

It's probably a bit longer. Adjusting the float probably would have fixed your problem
