RE: please help
It's either too rich on the high needle or too lean. When you give it throttle does it spit out alot of smoke or not much? Also how many turns out from seat do you have the highspeed needle? Your lowspeed should be flush with the collar.

I had a similar problem with my BB. What I did was turned all 3 screws in all the way, came out 2 full turns with them, and that got it to stay running. Then I adjusted from there. A minimal turn here and there and it was running good.

If you try all the above from everyone surely something has to work.

RE: please help
set the needles to 2 1/2 out on the high, flush with the low, 1-2mm opening on the carb and if that doesnt get you going decent, put in a new plug, os a3 or any other hot plug
