Hi, I just installed the motor on my bike, but it's giving me one problem. When I'm going down the road and not using the throttle, like when going down hill, the engine starts sputtering and coughing and if I don't give it at least a little gas it dies. Any way I can fix it?
Thanks!!!

the idle screw is the screw with the spring behind it ,turn it clockwise to raise throttle, the lever on the outher side is the choke, pull up to choke the motor.

I got a new carb a NT one it runs good but it sputters at idel and when I let up or keep it at a even run. My buddy and I run together, mine is faster about 5 mph faster but still sputters, could the ket be loose, I dont get oil in the air filter, if no one knows I leave it alone, it gives me an idea that it running a little rich, which is not bad for it, oh wellr.ly.
