My 400 has recently had her carb cleaned out because the float bowl was stickin. Now the 400 wont idle like it used to. It also dies when you push the throttle in just a tad bit and hold it. Is it my pilot or a/f screw?

I would say A/F screw, since you just cleaned it maybe didnt get it the right amount of turns out.

You didnt change you pilot jet so there shouldnt be anything wrong with that. Unless you didnt get it tight, they have been known to fall out if not screwed in all that way. then that could cause flooding and bogging like you spoke of.

Try taking your airbox lid off and see if that makes it worse or better then you will know if it is your A/F screw.
