First one sounds like pilot jets blocked or wrongly adjusted pilot screws.
The 02 -03 models have different pilot screw adjustments to the earlier models. They should be 2.5 turns out from fully in.
If you replaced or cleaned the jets then it is most likely the pilot screws
Remove the carbs and check the pilot jets and the setting of the pilot screws.
It is possible to get at the screws with a special tool with the carbs in place, but if you do not have it then it is carbs off
Hiya,
Will definitely check the cable slack at the lever and sprocket. Does it sound like it needs tightening or loosening?
I thought the 1st issue might be carb related, just because it had been sat for so long. Sorry to sound daft, but where are the pilot screws on these carbs? Are they underneath?
Thanks
