just did a 100km and i realised it was on choke when i tried to remove it the engine wouldnt start, i cant really remove it while running because my fuel line is in front of it (im on a really tight frame i had to cut part of the filter to even fit it), i dont know what i should do maybe buy a new carb ? i saw these two kind of "velocity stack"-y and a more regular filter (i know its not the carb in itself but the intake) and since i bought a cheap kit i figured i would just upgrade it straight away

ps: im very sorry if its not easily readable english isnt my first language

Try moving the clip on the slide needle down one slot. Test and repeat as necessary.
Check picture #9.

Well if it’s only running on choke you definitely need to lean that out. Bad gas? Clogged filter? Could be a bad carb but those stock carbys aren’t all that complex or expensive. I’d check the fuel first but buying a new carb won’t set you back a whole lot. I’m just if the opinion to try and figure out what’s wrong with it before I would replace it though. That’s just me. Some guys just replace the part. That’s a personal call there.

l'anglais n'est pas ma langue maternelle

Tu parles français je crois ?


Sur la vanne à pointeau, il y a un clip "C" qui est dans l'une des 5 positions sur cette vanne à pointeau.

Commencez par placer le clip en deuxième à partir de l'encoche supérieure.

Assurez-vous que le flotteur n'est pas coincé/lié et qu'il n'y a pas de fuite de carburant à l'intérieur du flotteur.

Nettoyez ou remplacez la bougie et l'écart à 6 mm.

Assurez-vous de resserrer les quatre boulons à tête à un équivalent métrique de 12 pieds-livres, ce qui correspond également à 144 pouces-livres en mesures anglaises pour éliminer la possibilité d'un moteur en marche pauvre.

Pardonne à mon école secondaire de 50 ans française.

Bonne chance...DAMIEN
