Hey guys and gals,
New to the forum here...finally I found a place where I may get the right answer.
I have a stock 2000 400ex and I'm having a slight problem with the carb. If the bike is idling (it's warmed up, this happens even if I've been on the bike for an hour straight and sitting with it at idle) and I hit the throttle about half way (not rolling on it, just hitting it to rev it) the bike sputters like it's going to stall, then when I release the throttle it goes back to an idle. If I hit the throttle quick and hold it half way it WILL stall. The same happens when I'm riding.
I've carefully taken the carb out and cleaned it, and put it back only to have the same problem. I have a K&N airfilter and I cleaned that also.
I have no idea what the problem is. Is it the carb, the jets???
