Default JR50 Jetting...

Been running into problems with my son's JR50. Really hard to start at times and carb seems to be flooding. Opened up the carb and found that the main jet had started unscrewing and was almost all the way out. While I was in there, I noticed in the pilot jet hole, there are two jets screwed directly on top of each other. Why are there two jets put in this way? Can I removed one?

Also, Ive heard of removing something inside the carb that will wake the little bike up. Has anyone heard of this?

Lastly, I lost the damn manual that came with the bike. Can anyone tell me how to tune the two adjustment screws?

Im about to give up on this bike already, not the best suzuki purchase Ive made. Love my RM250 and DRZ125, but the JR is so flaky.

Thanks.
