I'm sure there are a few out there that know their snowmobiles pretty well...... I'm coming to you for some help.
I bought an old sled for cheap to pull my fishing gear out on the ice. It needed a little TLC, so I have taken the carb off and cleaned it out really well, and I have put some new gas in it and replaced the plugs. It still runs a little shabby. It won't really rev up good. When I do rev it up too quickly, it back fires. I can rev it up slowly and it goes about 25-30 miles an hour. It will idle for about 5 minutes if I just let it run, but then it will shut off.
I need some help with the carb adjustments. There are 2 screws on the carb, but I'm not sure what they do and which one I should be adjusting. Any recommendations?
Here is a pic of the screws..... the one on the right has a spring on it.
Thanks for the help!
