what carb is it? if it is the round top tld carb found on later xr2s then take off the vacuum unit. (this it what pulls the choke open) it is the round thing on the front of the carb i think it says weber on it. open it up and check the diaphragm for holes. if no holes check vacuum passage on the piece you have removed and the corrosponding passage on the carb.
