Welcome Dylan, good to have you along. Thats a decent lookin ride you've got there. Man, I envy you with that lush green lawn in the background. Mines kinda white right now. Thats a Schwinn you built, right? Enjoy it and ride safe. Later, Mike

If it doesn't run with the choke off (open) then it sounds like an air leak somewhere. Start with the intake manifold/carburetor area and go from there. Many of us use a spray carb cleaner to check for air (vacuum) leaks. If the engine RPMs increase with the introduction of the carb cleaner that is where you want to look for, bad gaskets, defective seals etc. Excess air entering the engine will produce the condition you're describing. Get back to us with your findings.

ok ill try that here in the morning. I really need to dump my gas can.
some dumb*** left it in the sun and cap popped for 2 days and i pretty sure its ruined.
so if i drilled holes in my stock air filter would i get more power or if i like made a scoop to force more air.
