Default 125 no power under load

I got my brother's Suzuki 125 dirtbike running earlier, but when you open the throttle more than part way it bogs down and wants to die. It will idle great, and rev up fine under light throttle and no load. But under moderate throttle, or trying to go somewhere, it bogs down and dies. I took the carb off and soaked it with some B12, do I need to replace stuff in there? I'm not familiar with carbs, so lemme know any advice you have. Thanks!

EDIT: Oh yea, I forgot to mention, it's blowing a lot of white smoke under load. We also drained the gas tank, and put in some more fuel, but we didn't know how much 2 cycle oil to mix in, so we put 2 capfulls in. Not enough? Too much?
