Ok so I removed my carb and cleaned it out and put it back on but I'm guessing I'm putting the carb on the wrong way because as soon as I screw the top part on to the carb my thumb throttle goes really slack .. What am I doing wrong ? Is there a special way to screw on to the carb ?
The reason I cleaned my carb out is because I had to do a frame swap and after the swap my blaster would not idle.. ( it was idling before the swap) I know I'm screwing the top part of the carb on the wrong way because as soon as I put the needle+piston the thumb throttle goes loose.
Sorry if my wording is confusing I'm from the uk .. I know majority of user on here are the us. But thanks in advance !
 
sounds like you're installing the slide into the top carb throat wrong.
there is a groove on the slide which must align with the little pin down inside the carb, it's on the kicker side, and so must be the slot in the slide
