I rebuilt my carburetor, installed a new air filter and installed a new spark plug the other day on my blaster. It was running before this, but I knew the carburetor needed adjusting, so while it was off I just decided I would rebuild it. The air filter was in awful condition as well so I replaced it. Now it wont start up. What are common problems associated with rebuilding the carburetor? Thanks for help.

putting the slide in wrong, float sticking, jets gummed up, float adjusted incorrectly, theres alot of things that could go wrong i guess..
We measured the float clearance before we put it back on and in fell in the range. The slide is in correctly. New jets were installed, although I did wonder if when I cleaned it some debris could have been left and went into jet? Low speed needle? Thanks for yall's help and please keep it coming.
i think he meant pilot jet? thats the jet that controls your idle and effects the whole curcuit..
read this jetting thread it will give you a better understanding..
