ok guys im having some trouble tuning the carb on my warrior. i just finished a very mild build. when i got the quad it had a uni airfilter and a supertrapp silencer and had a 42.5(stock) pilot jet and a 150 main jet in it,it ran good i just wanted more so i recently installed a je 12.1 piston kibble white springs and retainers, megacycle 252x2 cam, mild p&p, i put in a 45 pilot and a 155 main in it and it is on the third clip on the needle and a/f screw 2.5 turns out, the problem is the thing idles great but, when you rev it in nuetral you have to feather it to midrange or it bogs, once it hits midrange it will rev great and when riding it, it bogs midrange then accells to the top end. initially i though i was rich because of the bog and no sputters or backfires on accell or decel and my plug is black. i just swapped the 155 main to a 150(i didnt have a 152.5) it does the same thing but when it makes it to top end it doesnt have to power it did with the 155. so i think im going to put the 155 back in and mess with the pilot. am i on the right track? any one got any hints? ive tuned tons of motorcycle and other atv carbs with no issues just none with the accel pump. by the way i live in columbus ohio (dont know the elevation here) and im running 110 octane cam2. i tried to be as descriptive as possible. any help would be greatly appriciated!
