Thanks for the thoughts. The carb is def a 38mm a/s. It was new but been on my shelf for 4 years. I purchased it for Cr250. I thought I would use it just to see while I decide on a carb. I thought maybe a little better response out of it and from what I have read the a/s likes a little leaner jetting.
Could be too lean but why would I smell so much fuel out of the pipe and have a wet plug? And why not restart after warm easly? Maybe opposite but it seems like it is flooding.
I forgot to mention in the last post that I have no lid on the box with a K&n with outerwear.
