Adjust the idle screw in for starters, also check/replace the plug if it's been sitting. Clean air filter. Check the fuel filter.

Do this:

Afterwards, try tuning it.

If the pilot jet is clogged no amount of fiddling will fix idle. It is a VERY small hole and plugs easily.

True but without try to clean the carb he will never clear it.

Yeah def. clean the carb, several times actually, 3rd is usually the charm. Use compressed air for jet passages. Some here have.had great results with sonic cleaners. Good luck man

cleaned the carb 2 times runs grate but still wont idal right
