It ran perfect before I washed it, then I went to start it after I washed it and it will start but I can barely give it gas before it dies.

I checked my TPS and its all good, checked the connections of the wires and the ground all seem good. What do you guys think is wrong.

drain the carbs bowl. then start it up with the choke on and ride it down the road till your moving pretty good then with one hand on the gas take your clutch hand to turn off the choke, then it should run pretty good.

Check for water in gas and kill switch and all common sense stuff.

Did you happen to take your airbox lid off or anything like that?

If I give it enough gas to get moving it dies. But Ill drain the float and try it after that.

Have you seen if you got water under your spark plug cap? if there is then that can be your problem. the kfx/z-400's was known for that happening. they will do the same thing

Hahah yep. Man I feel like a retard.

When I went to look at it this morning i was like ok it will start with the Hotstart pushed in and not with the choke. So that means its not getting any air. I took my filter off and I saw the rag.
