This weather has been stalling my progress but Ive been able to tinker a bit. Jetting is trickier than I thought it would be. Still not right on pilot, Im sure of it. Got a box of plugs to play with now. Should help.

I once had what I thought was a rich issue for quite a while and it turned out to be lean. But acted the same way as if it was rich. Not sure what your running or what just throwing my two cents in. Way to far out on the screw set it to spec like Melo suggests and go from there.

Exactly what Im thinking. Temps stay pretty low so I kept thinking rich. Could just be uber lean. Just like a rich bog. theres also a lean bog. Gonna play with it more.

Tuning is very hard to get dailed in the northwest right now because of the weather. It gets much easier when it gets above 60 degrees
