Hello guys, I have an 04 blaster that I received on a trade about a year and a half ago. It ran great till last summer. I was a couple hours away from home on an ATV trip when the rubber vacuum plug that the guy had on the oil injection on the carb developed a crack. Yes it ran lean and I burned the piston up. Luckily , I found a piston and a shop ( for cylinder work) around that town and rebuilt it at our campsite. Cleaned and checked the carb real good. It ran decent enough to finish our trip.
The next time I went to ride at home I could not get it to run. The carb kept overflowing into the cylinder flooding it out. Ordered a rebuild kit thinking the needle was not shutting of the gas. Rebuilt the carb and same problem. Adjusted float height and same problem.
Now this year I decided to ditch the TORS anyways so I bought a 30mm OKO. It has a 48 pilot and 148 main. Figured it was good enough to get it to idle at least. I started it and runs for about 10-15 sec. and dies. It will only do this with the choke out. The air/fuel screw is 1 1/2 turns out. The cylinder is .040 over and full fmf exhaust with foam filter and no lid.
Compression is at 140 psi and I don't have a leakdown tester. I have very limited time to work on her since I Work 3rd shift an watch my 1 year old during the day. I am just getting tired of trying to figure this out. I wish 1 of you guys lived near by so I could just dump her off and have a running blaster.
Thanks for any and all feedback from the community.
