Well it just didn't make sense to me that after I started messing with the carb the bike pretty much stopped running. On the first night I had it I was able to get it started and ride up and down the street...so I suspect it was still the carb.
I got a couple of other motors and a spare Z50 parts bike. I stripped the carb off that bike which was different from the one on my bike, took it apart, cleaned it out and put it on. I tinkered for a while and got it running....and actually got it to rev....hmm....
Click it into gear and I'm gone, up and down the road, no backfires...so its gotta be the carb. Now, I looked at the schematic of the carb I took off and it exact matches the Z50R.....so I'm wondering why this other carb works better.
Anyway, I do have another question. In this pic of the carb that was on the bike when it was not running you can see the brass tube I'm pointing at which I assumed was a jet. I tried to run a very very thin copper wire in there and it won't go more than 3cm down. Is this passage supposed to be open or do I have a major clog?
Here are the two carbs side by side. The one in my hand is the non-running carb...which I think may actually be the correct carb.
