OK here it goes. I had some running issues with my 110KLT it wouldn't idle and ran rich and sluggish. Plug would foul, yada yada. I thought well hmmmmm could be oil burn and the 27 year old girl could be low on compression. So, I pull her apart and have a new stock sleeve put in a new std. bore piston and rings. Even went out and bought a compression tester that fits small engins. I am getting about 145PSI, not racing numbers but not bad either. Timing looks OK with a timing light and I have messed with the carb from the very beginning with no change. I have taken out all the jets, idle screws, and such, checked for a dead float and squirted cleaner and compressed air in any hole I could find.

Any help?????

***update*** I found my ebay carberator I forgot I had, so I put it on. And with some adjustment the bike quit running pig rich and has a decient idle. Pretty happy with the results, at least I know everything else on the engine is running great. So guess now I move forward to getting the gas tank and rear fenders painted, Installing the aftermarket exhaust, new brake shoes, and the seat recovered. Then she will be a nice little daily run around bike.
