Default My problem

I think I have figured out my problem. My 14 year old son is riding the bike and he is new to a 2T. One of our favorite places to ride ends up back at the truck at the bottom of a long tight hill. He is tired when we finish up and just lets it coast for the last minute or two not really giving any throttle and maybe lugging it really bad in a high gear. This is loading the plug and screwing it up. When I try and start it up later it may or may not start and if it does its so fouled it wont run right all through the throttle making me think something else is up. I also took the air screw out to 2 turns and I may thin out the pilot to help (part of the problem is it may be a little rich at idle, but don't really think so. Its hard to tell because as you know all 2 strokes want to load after a few seconds at idle). Maybe this will help someone else down the road! Glad I didn't change the seals....
