i have a 99 400 ex that i just bought. it idles for about 5 seconds coughs and stops. filter is clean, fuel is clean, The idle is screwed all of the way in now and it still won't idle unless the choke is partially on. Lots of power at higher rpm. Its all stock. no modifications at all. I had the valves set and everything done last week but it still won't run.
Does anybody know where i can find an exploded view of the carb and dive in myself? or some hints on why this is occuring?
