Check your idle jet. It may be clogged.

adjust your valves and check ur plugs. yes idle jet might be clogged too.

hey guys i got the same problem... this was suggested to me before as well. now, i looked at a few diagrams of a 34-pict carb but i can't find the idle jet?

where is it in the carburetor? (i got a bocar unit, if that makes a difference)
