Make sure your air box is on with a filter in it or it will not run right. Also the voltage to the bystarter is AC not DC, set your meter.

clean your carb out before you put your new air filter in so it dosent mess up the carb

WHAT???
I am not a mechanic, nor do I play one on TV. Actually my advice is probably worth slightly less than what you pay to view it.

Once again its a dirty main jet. 99% of the time the answer is CLEAN THE CARB! Do yourself a favor and put an inline gas filter on. It helps stop the dirt the filter in the gas tank does not catch.

I added the filter before I even cleaned the carb. Thanks!
