Predator 212 help with shutting off!

[Jahnster]

Hello I’m totally new to this and forums in general. I’ve recently acquired an old dirt bug and I upgraded to a new predator 212 with exhaust and an air kit that came with the jets and were installed as well. I backed out the gov screw and moved the throttle spring to the other hole as I saw in another upgrade video. I’ve also removed the low oil sensor since I thought that was the issue. Problem is is will run great like a bat out of **** for a few at full throttle then it Boggles out and dies once I let off the throttle and it takes a minute to start back up. What could I be missing here? I’ve tried it with the old jets as well and it does the same thing. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

Hello and welcome..

Did you remove the oil sensor completely or just unplug it?...and if so did you also remove the gov completely??

Let see a few pics of the throttle setup..

Thanks for the reply!! I removed it completely and taped up the wire coming out of the block. The governor screw is just backed out, I didn’t remove it completely. Ok now I feel old because I literally have no idea how to post pictures on to the forum?

Do you mean the Idle screw or the screw on the gov arm?
The gov doesnt have adjustment other than holes to relocate the throttle arm rod.
was the outside arm,rod and springs attached as normally stock?? Or removed..

Here's on pics...

Make sure the fuel tank is clean. If you have to empty the tank and blow out all debris with an air hose. Refill with clean gas this has worked for me in the past.

Put everything back the way it was (obviously not the low oil sensor) and see if it gives you the same issue. That should maybe isolate what the issue is. The low oil sensor removal shouldn't affect the running of the engine

And post some pics....
