Hi, I'm new to the forum. I bought a 1985 lt230 the other day. It has many upgrades. It is bored, jetted, aftermarket crankshaft and camshaft. It also has a dg pipe on it. Anyways, I've been have a problem getting it to idle right. One minute it idles perfect, then the next minute it revs way up on it's own. I drive it around for a bit then the idle goes back down to normal. I cleaned the carb a couple times, it didn't help at all. I noticed my needle in my carb is a little bent on the end. Could this be making it idle weird? Other than the idle problems, it runs and drives great.

Also, someone butchered the wires on this quad before I had it. I am having trouble getting the key and lights to work. Does anyone know which wires supply the power for the headlight and taillight?
