79cc Motovox carb adjustment?

#1
Hi all,

Purchased a Motovox MBX10 for my son for Christmas and have a stalling issue. It's a bit difficult to start cold but even after it warms up it stalls easily. Letting off the throttle and quickly reengaging it usually stalls it every time. Placing the choke lever at the halfway point does help so I assume it's running lean. The mini bike engines I had when I was young had a A/F adjustable screw at the bottom of the carburetor but this doesn't. Can these be adjusted internally?

BTW... the bike is under warranty. But when I contacted the service center that Motovox said to use they warned me that repairs take a very LONG time due to Motovox being slow to get replacement parts out. My son is having a blast riding this so I'd rather fix it myself rather than have it sit at a shop waiting for parts.

Thanks
