Don't tune it like the manual say as far as the air fuel screw cause it'll be to much. Only need to come out with it once botted out about a 1/4 turn

It will need some fine tuning however it should run with the settings in place. Did it crank up at all before you started turning screws and adjusting things?

No it wouldnt crank with the mikuni.. it would run fine with the stock.. it has a 175 main and 25 idle.. took it apart and cleaned eveything and started over i think its pumping to much fuel bc i have gas coming out of exhaust afeter a long cycle of cranking...

I thought the BPS kits come with a 160 main. 175 might be too big.

That i thought to but main doesnt come into play until.about 1/4 to half throttle... thought i may have an air leak bc it will crank with my hand over intake but kills when u take it off... checked all joints conections everytgibg is tight and sprayed some carb cleaner while cranking to see if it was leaking at the boot and at the stock intake and it isnt... i have spark. And fuel bc my hand comes off wet with gas after manually choking

Bad thing is put the stock carb on and it doesnt even make a quarter revolution amd cranks... i still think.its an air leak has anyone had problems with the carb itself leaking air???? Im gonna take front plate n top plate off make sure they all have gaskets
