I cleaned the carb on my 2004 eiger but I am having the problem idling. In neutral I get it started and give it the gas and black smoke comes out At high speed it runs ok just when I come to a stop it dies I was wondering if is something major or just some carb adjustment Thanks for a response

When you say you cleaned the carb, did you mean that you completely disassembled it by removing every jet, the needle, the float, etc.

Did you spray carb cleaner through every port and jet until each was completely clear?

Or do you mean that you sprayed cleaner down the carb throat or added carb cleaner to the gas tank?
