I'm looking to see if there is anyone in Colorado Springs that can help me out with my 83' Honda ATC 200x. I've been messing with this thing for years.

Whats the problem?
Well when i push the throttle it dies. Also sounds like a ticking noise in the top end.
Quick guess but not getting enough gas. Try cleaning the carb. And the noise could be the valves out of adjustment. Get a manual and follow the troubleshooting guides
Already had the carb cleaned. I have a manual so ill look into the vale adjustment
Is it worse when the engine is cold or hot?
Post a photo of your spark plug.
Nearly white porcelain is lean.
Black dry porcelain is rich.
Lite tan is happy.
Try it with the choke half on then full on.
Try it with the air box lid off.
Try it with the air filter removed.
Try it with the clip on the needle raised to the top of the needle.
Will it rev up with the choke on?
I can get it too start with choke up. But it's a pain to start. Cleaned carb and had it rebuilt already.
Like I said at the beginning, it'd be easier if someone was in the same town. Cause non of this is helping at all
If it's any help, amazon has carbs brand new for around $20. With mine I figured for the price it was an easy choice to just replace the whole thing. Then go from there.
ok. I might do that. I already had it rebuilt
Your plug indicates a Rich condition. What size pilot and main jet are you running?
Also list what exhaust and intake mods have been made to it.
110 for the main jet. Not sure about pilot. Whatever came in the repair kit is what im useing
