went to ride my 200s today and it wouldn't idle, just dies. It's always been kinda screwed up. I rebuilt the carb and replaced the carb to cylinder intake tract thinking airleak, but that didn't help. Today it was backfiring really bad too, so I checked the timing since the screws had been out before I bought it. Is it supposed to be timed to the F or the T mark on the flywheel? I guessed the F since my manual was at home and the trike is at my Dad's house.
Also it has this wierd miss, it will idle and then pop back through the carb and then the idle speed will change, sometimes it will die. I've tried adjusting the air screw. Is that a bad valve or what? I adjusted the valves when I got it, and the cam chain a couple of times. I just want to make sure it isn't something simple before I take the top end off.
