If this is the PZ carb, the problem is most likely the pilot jet is too small. Raising the needle enriches from 1/4 throttle to 3/4 throttle. Pilot jet below 1/4 throttle. In my experience, you do the throttle cutaway after you've done everything else. Virtually all of these bikes will run and accelerate just fine with the right pilot jet, and the right main jet. Only the super fussy, like me, change the throttle cutaway. Sincerely, ARH
