This has come up the last two times I rode the Puma. It's been a bit finicky to start cold. Takes a bunch of pulls, will back fire, then takes some time at the throttle to keep it running. Once it's been ridden for a bit, it'll idle and restart no issue. After sitting for an hour or so, a bit hard to start and needs some throttle to stay running. Adjusting the idle on the carb has helped, but that's more of a bandaid.
When I let off the gas while riding at lower speeds, I get a popping noise. Almost like it's engine braking.
I rebuilt the carb last week...full teardown and clean. Pilot jet was clean...but I soaked it and cleaned it with wire anyways. Air screw was out 3/4 of a turn; backed it out to 1 turn per the service manual. No change in the above.
