[QUOTE="Tubecatgs, post: 221626, member: 4885"] Thanks. I live north of Buffalo NY where the elevation is about 50 ft above sea level and will never ride anywhere above 2000 feet. Summers get to about 90 degrees tops only for a few short weeks. Mostly will be riding in 50-75 degree weather. Oh and turns out there is no limiter cap on the new carb so I was able to play with that.. I turned it all the way in, and it was set at the factory at 1.5 turns out. I was able to back it out to about 2.5 turns and seems the popping slowed way down, then I turned up the idle (seems a little high). then the popping almost 100% went away. However, it was 55 degrees out at night and didn't ride it hard on the trails to get real hot (will probably react differently in the summer when its 80-90 degrees out...) but seems better. Will ride it more over the next few days.... Still thinking I might need to go up one jet size but we'll see... Thank you! [/QUOTE]
