79cc Predator/ bogs down on acceleration

[Danny01]

When I go full throttle it tries to shut off.
It stops when the engine is hot.
Not enough fuel?
I'll most likely have a vid on it tomorrow.

If it runs with the choke its running lean. Check float level and fuel supply. You may need a bigger jet!

Is there a screw I can adjust?

nope. It all fixed up inside the carb. Was it always this way? ...or did it just start? What mods have you done to this point?

there is a brass screw in the top of the carb youll probrobly have to take the muffler off to get to it but its easier than pulling the carb. But its a jet and on mine that often gets clogged up and id say its a good bet thats youre problem. i just pull it out and spray it clear and its good to go

I only see the idler screw and a screw all the way at the bottom (not under) by the valve cover.
Also where is the jet on these carbs, I've never taken one apart?

 

[Danny01]

also the clutch was not on so there's nothing holding it back

 

[jeep2003]

its on the carb directly under the idle screw. you actually have to screw it in or take it out to get to the jet. If you see nothing there than it may be a different model I dont know about

Oh ok I see. I thought it was like an actual screw. Thanks.

 

[Danny01]

I'll try cleaning it out tomorrow.
If I need a jet do I go #80?

Also I know it's not good but is it possible to run a little rich and make it backfire a little?
I really want to back fire once in a while.

 

[Danny01]

I cleaned the jet and a couple of metal pieces cam out.

 

[Danny01]

Still bogs out.
What size jet can I get to run a bit rich?#82?
