Bike is carbureted. Looked inside tank liner looks good. Rubber plug is in the top and tight
How do you reset the CB?
I'm going to trouble shoot more this evening. If I can't figure it out I would take it to a shop.
Anyone recommend anyone in the Tulsa area?

If it starts and dies when you give it gas, could be that your Accelerator pump need to be adjusted or replaced. You have three screw that can be adjusted on the Carb, one being the idle screw, which is the one on the rear most of the carburetor, next you have a Mixture screw which is in the middle or almost on top of the Carb between the Idle and Accelerator screw. Next you have the accelerator screw which sit almost on the front and to the rear of the Carb. Take and turn the Accelerator adjustment screw clockwise unit it lightly seats. SNAP the throttle open and the engine will stumble. Turn the screw counter clockwise (out) 1/4 of a turn at a time until the engine responses to the throttle twist with smooth and quick response. If it goes out more than say 3 turns you need a new accel pump. If it still dies on you after adjusting the Accel Pump, you will need to take the carb off and rebuild it.
Before you do you can also try adjusting the Mixture screw that being the one in the middle top of Carb. You do this by turning the screw in 1/4 of a turn at a time till the engine stumbles, then back off till you get the highest RPM possible (which is what I do), then turn it in 1/4 and you are done. 9 out 10 times when the engine dies when you throttle is because you accelerator pump is not adjusted properly or need replacement. When that happens it's best to rebuild the Carb and be done with.
Hope that Helps. Any Bike shop should be able to help you with Carb adjustment.

Start it up and check the voltage when its running with a meter, should be 13.5-14.4 running, if ya have that and it still stalls try loosening the gas cap as mentioned above, do you hear air rushing in? maybe vacuum locked
