Jets dont open, throttle cable wont move

Less than 200cc requires 32:1 or better if you want to safely open up the throttle.
I am an oddball who runs 25:1 for the utmost power with great peace of mind.
I also only ever use Castor oil, which undisputedly is the absolute best.

so blaaster when they talk about if its in the air box is it referring to wither its connected directly to carb and bypassing the duct, or just the filter isnt covered. I'm a little confused. Bc on my other kart engines i've built I connect to an aluminum manifold and direct to carb.
ok as far as that goes is I was taught to never ride all open all the time, or youll blow your piston. Again I loved my blaster, but I'm bad w 2 strokes and a powerband, really does take more talent to ride, but more power if utilized right.
You don't need the cap and throttle cable if you leave the tros block on the carb. It (tors) still can be eliminated and leave the block on top. Thirty bucks for the stock carb is a good price. Good looking out Fred.
Taking the lid off allows the bypass of the extremely small inlet through the snorkel, up 2 jet sizes if removed.
I never use a manifold, I just slap the pod filter directly on the carb to avoid interfering vortexes.
ya bummer, thats what I was in the process of doing. But when I opened up my throttle I noticed I had tons of slack and my adjustment was maxed out. The old owner roasted the cable on the exhaust so Didnt think much of it, and had a spare around. So once I got to the block and got it out of the clip I realized despite it being rusted up and burnt it was still mechanically sound, just ugly. Thats when I realized the situation at hand.
Ok, so blaaster the riding I do gets a little hairy. If I go to my parent's trails I have to cross a creek that could be no bigger than a piss stream, but up to a foot and a half deep and ten feet wide.
But I think I do have a uni air filter floating around. Was looking at a K&N thought my work at autozone. and thats down the road, but does is justify 50 bucks, its the non foam version too.
Ok.... Here is what I did. I put a 270 main in it. Checked the needle, Middle slot. stock pilot. I cleaned out the choke, air'/fuel screws, and the slide. I went into the tors unit and made sure the arms and springs were all functioning right. Float levels checked, and are good. I also marked on the carb with a sharpie what is what, what jets are in it, and I pre-set the air/fuel screw 1.5 turns out.
The Idle Screw will be close, but your going to have to mess that and the air fuel screw when you install it.
The oil injection nipple has a red circle drawn around it, so you know where it is.
I'll throw a note in the box with my cell # if you need help.
Don't forget, that 270 main is about as close to what you might need as I have on hand. Order yourself some more jets and Plugs. Do the Chops, and Jet it right for the mods/conditions.
Good luck with the Blaster. It will be fun when you get it all running right. This forum has bailed me and countless others out of jams. Its a good place, and will help you and your Blaster out!

Pipe only = #260 main jet. Needle in middle slot, pilot #32.5.
Aftermarket air filter + 1 or 2 sizes on main.
Air box lid off + 2 sizes on main.
32:1 mix + 1 size main.
All same needle and pilot.
If the PO did it right you may just have the larger jets in the old carb.

old main jet is 270, and im not counting on the old owner knowing how to read from all the damage hes done to it all.

Order away! Get some B8ES plugs too! Just order a bunch...maybe 280-330....that way you have them as you progress out on your build.

have a few b8es, and a few br8es, essentially the same thing, but ya Ill be getting a jetting kit, for future progression.
Don't buy a jet kit, they rarely have the jets you need in them, Its much cheaper and more effective to order the individual ones you need. save your money for other things you will need/want down the road.
Did you say you were running 40:1 with a hotter plug? 40:1 is a pretty lean mix to begin with and a hoter plug definetly won't foull. 32:1 is what you want and use a good oil..
Let me know what jets you need and your address and I'll send then to ya just pay for shipping. I m pretty sure i have an air box lid to if you need one let me know, again just pay for shipping.
