i would take the card.apart,dip it in a carb,cleaning solution.then blow air  in all the holes with a compressor,check both idle and mains jet for clogging ,i would also check in ur shop manual 2 verify that the jets u have r OEM and not over sized,check the float for holes and proper level and put it all back together.that usually  fixes ur carb, issues...also remove ur sparkplug and see what color the tip is,it should be a white/caramel color n dry...hope my advice helps u buddy n good luck
