How much water cam out of the carb drain? Mine always has a FEW DROPS come out when I pull the plug in the drain after riding. Did you put Dielectric grease on the spark plug? If you did you may want to hit it again. I have to regrease mine every 3-4 rides. Sometimes mine will sputter in the water, but after it gets fresh grease it is good to go for another few rides.


I run a DJ170 (per the kit) and Robb uses a DJ175.
