Thanks andrew for the advice. Cleaned out the idle nozzle and try again. Did notice that the needle aren't pointed but blunt. When I look carefully, it doesn't seems to be broken as the blunt part are very clean. This time, i have to turn out about 3 turns to get the enging responding to the idle noozle adjustment. Having just tried it a day but so far no wet plug yet. However, when I ride at higher speed of 60KM/h and just let go the throttle, the engine will purt to a stop. Then it won't start. If I only give it a kick and it won't start, I just leave it for about a minute and just need another slow kick and it will start again. What went wrong this time? Thanks.
