Hello all, new to forums.
I am writing in regards to a problem I am having with my dirtbike. I live at an elevation of 5300 feet and am wondering what size jet I should use. The stock is a 160. 160 had always worked fine at this elevation and higher elevations. A couple weeks ago I was up in the mountains and my dirtbike would foul out at wide open throttle. It would not die completely. If I turn the gas if it will run fine until it runs out. Anyone know why this is happening. I fired it up where I live at 5300 and it does the same thing it will run fine but as soon as I give it full throttle it just dies out. I can turn the gas off and it will run perfect until the gas in the line and bowl is used. I checked my petcock and it works perfect. Pulled the bowl off of the carb and the floats are working fine. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
