need some help

[honda83]

I went thru my carb on my 185s and cleaned it, plus I put an new air filter on. The spark plug looks great and the bike runs better. However it slightly back-fires when I rev it up real quick. Could this have something to do with the CDI or should I rebuilt the carb.

thanks

sounds like you need to adjust the mixture. if that doesnt do it rebuild it.

Backfire on "SNAP" is usually Lean Fuel-----Make sure the pilot passage in the carb is ------..........""SPOTLESS""

I adjusted my mixture because it was too rich and fouling my plugs, now it looks good, back-fire is not nearly as bad-just a little when rev up.

Is it probably need to have carb rebuilt?
