Hey guys this is my first time owning a china engine and I’m really scratching my head on this one

The engine idle great but when I press gas it’s cutting sounds like a rev limiter but it sometimes goes higher I’ll link a YouTube video first comment


here is my setup

Atc200 with a running zongchen 250cc engine
New cdi
New coil
New carb pz27 main jet 120 pilot 38


*** UPDATE *** the engine was drowning I replaced my main jet with a 98 and now it’s working flawlessly

38 pilot
98-100 main is the way to go for an atc200 carb at sea level

Is the choke off? Sounds like the choke is on and flooding it out.

Nope choke is off if it sound like flooding I’ll try lowering the main jet
