I need help!!! My blaster has been running like absolute crap lately. It doesnt want to idle, even with the choke on. Then with the choke on when i give it gas it tends to rev really high and stick. Then when I'm riding it, it just doesnt seem right. I believe its a vacuum leak but I'm not sure.
 
so lets start looking for the air leak. sounds like reed or carb boot is bad. is carb dirty? it might be a good idea to do some research on your bike if you want to fix it or maybe u could take it to someone else to look at??

Start with the basics, which are in no particular order:

1). if your premixing your gas/oil is the ratio correct? and are you using 2-stoke oil?
2). how's the spark plug look? now is a good time for a new one.
3). pull the carb off, open it up, clean it, reinstall
4). make sure your fuel petcock isn't clogged and fuel flows freely
5). is your TORS still hooked up? if so, disconnect it using DIY instruction
6). is your airfilter dirty? time to clean it.

if the basics are in order, then move on to checking for vaccum leaks, bad reeds, compression check, leak-down check, etc.

Good luck!
