Hey guys, I need some guidance and insight into my build. I just rebuild the top end of my 66cc engine. New cylinder because the intake screw holes were stripped. I regasketed everything with the black gasket sealer, and locktited everything. The biggest change has been I installed one of the HP carburetors from ThatsDAX. Engine fired up, and idles great, but has no power. I am using a 65 jet, which is the smallest I have, because the one that came in it (70) was too rich. The engine used to rev up to full power with the stock NT carb quite fast, and I could cruise comfortably at 2/3 throttle at 25mps. Now, with the DAX carb, I have to pedal manually quite a bit more than I used to, and at top end it struggles to reach 20mph, and it just feels much lower on power than it did. I always heard these carbs were quite a bit better and had excellent response, but I considered putting the NT carb back on it. Can anyone help me out here? The bike is just much lower power than it was.
