Yours is running too rich.

Clean the air filter element.
Clean/replace the plug.

The CDI wire just unscrews from the CDI.

Naw, just bought a new kit and built a whole new bike. I can always use a good excuse to build a new toy.

Finally tore into the old engine. Turns out the problem causing the sputter was a broke lower ring. Who da thunk it.....
