Sounds like jetting to be though, but take your plug ouy and if it is burning black really bad then on your main jet needle, move the clip UP one because moving it up will lean it out. Try that out and let me know if that works man. Oh yeah and for the jetting it is either clogged or if the weather changes like it get's cold and it does that in the winter then that's what it is and I don't know if you will need to make the main jet or the pilot bigger or smaller because I would have to ride it to know. Call a local shop and ask them about the best jetting and tell them the year of the bike etc. I hope that was a help to you, just let me know if that helped the problem. Oh yeah talking about dirt bikes, wan't a 89 Husqvarna 510 Dual Sport?
Thanks, I got sunday off, maby my dad and I can pull it out of storage ( The shed ) and try ajusting the main jet. When my dad bought the bike it ran great, started 2'nd or 3'rd kick and just ran great but, after about 3 weeks it started cutting out and loosing power, he thinks it's the reeds but, I don't think so. We have rebuilt & cleaned the carb 2 times but, still the same thing. We have also never checked the plug or cleaned the air cleaner, guess we better do that to.
