250x motor sputtering/breaking up
the motor idles fine and sounds okay when i hit the throttle but when riding its constanltly breaking up and sputtering it seems like a carb problem but it worked fine before and ive tried every different spot on the mixture screw tried running with half choke with and without airbox lid, everything! can this be elictrical problems?

You may need to go threw the carb and clean the jets. Have you cleaned the air filter and checked the plugs.

I think that would be the idle screw for adjusting the idle up and down.

If it's been sitting for 7 years and hasn't been off, you need to take if off and take it apart and clean it good.
