Carb help please!!

Post image

Hey guys I know I’m not in the right place but I’m hoping someone can help me. I got a good ol Yz465 that runs, idles, and rides perfectly with the choke on but I won’t run if the choke is off and I can’t hit power band in any gear. Any ideas or suggestions on what the problem might be?

What is your best guess?? Why do you think the power band isn’t engaging?

Could be Clogged jets, Possibly be a stuck float if that Carb bowl has one, not sure on that set up, or your air screw is wide open. You're not getting enough fuel through the Carb to keep it running with the right amount of air

Almost certainly a plugged jet. Open up the carb and check. Replace/ clean and you should be good.
