What is the stock main jet in the 250? Either way it sounds way too rich. The idle screw will have no effect on the main jet circut. Read the jetting article in the Articles section. It should help you better understand the carb.

HMF suggestions are always way rich. Pull off the lid and see if it runs better. It will very likely still be too rich.

Go to the 250ex forum and look at the jetting thread. I made some suggestions for another member that should be very close to what you need.

Nope, everybody says that your too rich = too much fuel. The pilot jet will not change anything that has to do with heavy throttle bogging. Again, check out the jetting topic in the Articles section.

Did you read the posts? If we're saying you're rich, it means...well...you're too rich.

taking the lid off will make it run leanER, but it will still be rich (meaning too much fuel). I run NO airbox and I run 128, and that's probably a little on the rich side.

If you carefully read my post you would have gone over to the 250ex forum like i suggested and found where the thread on jetting was at the top of the page, you would have seen the suggestions I made to a fella who was doing very similiar mods to his 250.

Stay at the stock pilot jet. If you turn out the air screw a bit you'll be fine.
