Kymco 250 People Bogs Down

[creaseuk]

I bought a Kymco People 250 in various piecies for a great price.
I've managed to re-assemble most of it and i have got it running and revving. However, as soon as I sit on it to try and pull away it dies. I took the carb apart and blew out the holes. I changed the idle jet to 40 but when i looked at the main jet it was only 106. This can't be right as my Gy6 150 is 105.  I tried to fit a 125 jet from my gy6 stash but the thread is too big. Do any of you know where i can buy a 125 jet and what do i ask for??
Thank You..

Read my "carb notes" threads in the Bet and Win 250 section.  That will get you going in the right direction.

Well Guys, i think i may have found the culprit but have no idea how it got this way. When i took a magnifying glass to the main jet it was clearly stamped 106. So, i have a tray of cvk 24/30 jets in the garage. I picked out a 130 jet but quickly found the actual jet was too big for the housing. After some (not so very precise) measuring i discovered my CVK 30 carb jas CVK 26 jets..I had a CVK 26 120 jet so i fitted it and Viola, no more bogging down. It does pop and bang on the overrun so its still way too lean. Now i have to find the standard jet size for a 250 people and somewhere to buy these jets in CVK 26 sizes....

Sounds like you did a good job of figuring it out.
