The float level is fine (besides there is no float level adjustment). It sucked a piece of sand in.
To remove the carb I have a 8mm snap-on wrench. Only one small and strong enough to loosen the carb bolts.
FYI: I lay on the seat and put my arms down to the carb.
hint: silicone that o-ring in that plastic piece.

It's usually only one speck,just slightly bigger than the jet size

we went to the dunes this weekend and i noticed that the gang wasn't right behind me so i turn around, and get back to find everyone parked around the 80 well i go up and the thing fires right up but then it would just start to die, but if you push off then on the trottle it would catch again, well i think what happened is my daughter was riding hard thru the whoops and the float level must of got out of adjustment. my question is is there a easy way to get that carb off everything on that thing is small and hard to get to.
