wait 15 hours and let the engine cool off. a cht gauge may read cooled, but something might be hot. and you cant tune it right. i know stuff can get cooled, through at 14 hours. so wait 14 hours. at least.
and do you guys know how to tune a carburetor? what idle rpm are you setting the mixture at? kinda high? set the idle rpm with the idle screw. then adjust the mixture, at idle, with the fuel/air mixture screw. to get the highest idle. if it raises, too much, lower the idle back down, some with the idle screw. keep your rpms the same, while adjusting the mixture screw, and getting the highest rpms. just make sure the idles, a little high. when you do it.
if its highest idle, well. measure how many turns out the mixture scrwe is out, from all the way in, once its set. by counting the number of turns in, it is. out. then screw it back out and set it back where it was again.
then if its, under 1 1/4 or over 3 1/4 something like that. then adjust the pilot jet. but once thats set, then it should be revving back no problem. make sure not to set idle mix until the bikes warmed up. if it cuts out, go out ride around make sure its set. make sure the screw the mixture screw isnt too far, out or in. maybe need to swap a pilot jet. make surte to go out and ride around some and make sure its warmed up. first. sometimes it takes 10 minutes of some riding to get it to runnign temperature. but go out and getting it to runnign temp before you set your idle mixture. cause the choke will take care of it until it warms up. and also the automatic choke will stay on until its warmed up, according to, a timer..? or the carb heating up from hot air off the motor.. ? right temperture? id ont know. go ride it around for 10 minutes. if its not setting right, if its cutting out, ride it to warm it up. try to adjust it. adjust it then ride more to warm, if its not stopping cutting out, ride until its warmed, like 10 minutes around. set idle mixture again. if it doesnt stop cutting out. maybe make small, adjsutments. if its blurbing or sounding airry, turn the screw, out for more air if thats it,k that means its, rich. if its cutting out, turn the screw in, its too lean to stop more air from gibnign the gas too much air. making it cut out.
... if your too far in or out, change the pilot. if your close, to 1 1/4 then your probably too rich. if your over 3 1/4 your probably too lean. rich, then lean the pilot jet. smaller size. Lean, then richen the pilot jet.
if your lean, then also check for air leaks. more. make sure your plugs if you got any on your lines arent leaking. dont use any wood to seal lines with. check hoses for cracks, leaks. if its new, they snouldnt be leaking, cracking or cracked.
make sure the connections are tight. use hose clamps.
