hey guys is have a 01 blaster completely stock. i rebuilt and cleaned the carb. I reassembled the carb too the TORS and noticed my throttle has a ton of play (almost nothing the needle in the carb moves slightly when i hit the throttle). is it possible something in thee TORS and or the throttle came loose?

did you put the cable back in the right place on the carb, there is a slit and a little notch that the cable end fits into
on a stock carb there is a little groove the pin must go into i dont think it will go in unless its lined up. i think you didnt hook the cable back into the slide the right way, OR never tightened up the part that holds the cable adn needle
im thinking something came loose somewhere along the lines. i never disconnected the cabe from the slide or anything like that but you still think its possible it came loose somehow when i took it apart?
Worse comes to worse id like to replace the TORS with the kit. not too difficult for a noob right?
No, the kit's easy enough. Hardest part is drilling and tapping a hole.
Is it possible that you didn't get the needle into the jet hole when you put the slide in?

no its in the jet hole but only lifts a tiny bit when i hit the throttle. basically my needle doesnt move up and all i did was disconnect the cap from the carb. it worked before i took it off perfectly. could i have messed the spring up? its supposed to compress all the way when you reinstall it right?

I suppose the real question is does the slide go all the way in and close off the bore of the carb throat? Otherwise, I'm having trouble understanding what you are describing, I guess.
how far down does the needle have to go? the needle sits slightly above the brass piece inside the carb
The needle should go all the way in. The slide should cover most of the throat bore. If you don't see this, then you prob have the slide in 180 degrees out. Take it out and turn it til it slides all the way in.
i think it is in all the way. should the needle be going through the jet inside or should the tip be just a little bit off of the jet? ill take pics later if i still cant figure it out.......
You mean go through the main jet down in the float bowl? I never looked....Regardless, if the slide is down all way, then that should be fine.
Maybe someting came loose inside the TORS switch box on top of the carb.

yea that was my last guess. im gunna take it apart tonight. hey man thanks for all the help, appreciate it
the the TORS cover off (the bigger pannel ) and the throttle wire might of poped out of the thing that catches it ,sorry i know its a bad explaination but if you take it apart and look you'l see what im on about
i already took it apart. everything looks together. im going to disassemble EVERYTHING and hopefully ill figure it out through the process
i figured it out........needle wasnt in all the way.. it idles fine but when i hit the throttle it boggs or lags early on then clears up when i get into higher gears ne ideas??
Sounds like the pilot jet. Check to see if it is plugged. Yeah I know you already cleaned it but it has a really tiny hole that plugs easily. Spray it out with carb cleaner and look through it, you should be able to see a nice round hole when you hold it up to the light. Also spray the passage, making sire it comes out the carb throat.
