I’m so tired of trying to find the right jet for my carb that won’t be too rich. I’m looking for recommendations for a good carb with an air fuel mixture screw. I just have a regular china girl. Thanks

I’d try to find the right jet first before swapping carbs. You can fill a big jet with solder then drill it to the size you need.

I’ve heard good things about those tillotson style china knockoff carbs. I can’t confirm or deny fitment however.

You don’t need to continue to make new threads on a common easily fixable and searchable topic. Did you try the solder method that we suggested?

No. I’m not good at soldering. I would just like to get a better carb.
You don’t have to be good at soldering all you have to do is plug up the hole. Nobody who does wiring is good at soldering their first time. It’s easier than making a new carb work. Well you’re the one asking, I gave my best advice, well I tried and that’s all I’ve got… good luck

I appreciate that but I’m looking for a carb recommendation

Years ago I bought a Whizzer that had one of those Walbro carbs with fuel screws... I couldn't for the life of me make it run good!! :(

Finally I gave up & swapped out a cheezy Chikuni carb onto the bike, & with a simple jet swap, I quickly had the bike running like a champ!
