About a year ago I replaced the carb on an Bruin that I bought from a relative, I replaced it because it was gummed up from bad gas sitting in it for a couple years. Replaced the carb, and ran it a little bit and it had a problem of the carb popping whenever giving it throttle. I assumed this was just a fuel air mixture I needed to adjust, but I was lazy and just let it sit for a few more months. I went to adjust it just now, but I don't know if I'm slightly retarded, but I can't find the fuel/air mixture adjustment screw anywhere on the damn thing. I've tried nearly every screw I could find on it without taking the whole thing off (Which is a pain on this atv). I'll link some pictures I have from ebay on this carb. I also checked manuals and diagrams of the carb and could not find anything anywhere. Please spare me from my complete ignorance.

Hey @KevinWithNumbers, welcome to Quadcrazy. 
Hopefully you held on to the old carburetor? If so great. Never let that go since oem carburetors are the best and always rebuildable as long as they are not cracked or striped.

I highlighted/arrowed where the air fuel screw is.  It may have a brass plug over it.  If so you have to drill the brass plug out.  Its pretty common to do this.  Some states require this cap for emissions reasons etc.    

Ive never had any luck with the $50 cheap aftermarket carbs from china.  They always have rough spots when you throttle up.  
Backfire issues etc. Just to finicky for me Hopefully you get lucky. 
If not then you can soak and rebuild the original carburetor.   We can help you along with that.

      Hisun 700 EFI. Replaced TMAP sensor had broken off . Fuel pump pressure 41psi. The only way I can keep it running (and runs fine) is to close off fuel return line.

      This thing came with a cheap aftermarket carb on it the problem I'm having is it won't start with choke installed into carburetor it will start and get run without it installed then bogs out after about 2 min run time I've checked timing , compression, checked valves for proper clearance , also did a smoke test for air leaks found none.

      I got asked to work on a pair of Yamaha 350's.  One has grizzly stickers, one has bruin stickers.  Both are 2wd, straight rear axle.  Not sure what year.  I'd guess '04-'08.
      Both have a no start condition.  Both have been sitting 2+ years.  One came with box of parts the owners 15 year old kid removed to try and get it running.
      Started working on one last night.  Pulled the rack, front plastic, fuel tank, recoil starter, carburetor.  
      Removed petcock from tank, cleaned screens, made sure if flows air, reinstalled.
      Drained fuel tank, put in fresh fuel, swirled it around, letting is soak and will drain and check it later.
      Cleaned up the motor a bit since its covered in mud.  Checked the valves.  The intake had less zero, actually, probably less than zero clearance.  The valve seems like it was hanging open just a touch even at TDC.
      The exhaust had maybe .004 clearance.  I assume that went to zero once running.  
      Adjust intake to .008.  Adjusted exhaust to .018
      Scrubbed the carb in a sink with a toothbrush, dawn, and water.  It looked like a mudball.
      After that, sprayed it down with carb clean and took it to the bench.  A/F screw was 1.75 turns out.  I'm thinking this is a factory setting.  It seems like this machine was never touched by a mechanic.  All the jets actually seemed clear.  The bowl had minimal residue in it.
      That about as far as I made it for the night.  Going to get a fresh plug, clean the air filter, add some fresh gas, and see if it will run.  If so, I'll probably clean up the oil cooler before putting it back together.  Maybe change the engine oil  and rear diff fluid too.
