    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

    " the carb got a new throttle needle and float needle"

    Wondering what notch you Stuck the needle back in.
    Maybe you have the clip to low Causing it to not fully Shut.? Try moving your clip for your throttle needle Up a notch at a time and try.

    Also when it is Flooded. Take spark plug out, and let it dry in the head for 5 to 10 min.

    well when i referred to blowing the carb out with air my float and needle were taken off. all was taken apart or off the carb except the jets. so no i did not bend anything or hurt anything that would relate to the float or needle.
    dump a little gas down the spark plug whole.....she'll start.

    most likely it went on the clip was put back on it went on the one it came off, or factory specs it would be #3 slot.
