Good call. I need to do that tomorrow.

Today I got the new carb installed and it started first try. It was idling at full throttle though. I pulled the throttle cable and realized I misunderstood the comments about the notch. I aligned to the channel the throttle cable goes through, not the cutout on the opposite side.

After rotating things around I was able to start it up and take my first ride up the driveway. Sadly it died at the top of the driveway. Though it was because I had been adjusting the fuel and air mix screws when it was running full throttle. Turns out I had flipped the fuel switch and my first ride was on whatever was in the tubing. Whoops.

Tomorrow I need to adjust the mix screws again on the carb to try to get the idle just right and swap out the oil to something better than whatever was in there from the factory.

Woohooo!
