Default Spark plug readings

My cart isn't running as good as it could be, it seems that I need a larger jet because I need to use a little bit of choke to block some air flow.

The thing that has me confused is that when I pull the plug after running at low to Mid RPM the plug is white. but when I run it at WOT and turn of the engine with the key and coast to a stop then pull the plug it is a nice tan color.

My thinking is that since I don't run it at WOT all the time I am going to get a a larger jet....unless there is something that I can tune on the carb to fix the ratio at low RPM

P.S. I have done the airbox mod similar to what Plowmans


thanks for the help guys!!

If you have to choke to run properly you have too much air.

Give it a little bit bigger jetting
