Well I bet you are awaiting another question....
But for now we have succeeded in fixing the problems. It was NOT the CVT afterall. I took the carb apart again and thoroughly cleaned it and found that I missed a venturi that was partially clogged that was keeping me from getting top speed. Then I took your advice and adjusted my valves. The intake valve was fine but the exhaust valve was so close that I couldn't even get a .001 feeler in there. Fixed that.
It is running like a scalded dog!!! (for now) Anyway, I would like to sincerely thank you for your advice and all of the other posters on this website.

That's good to hear. It's hard troubleshooting on other peoples observations, so you have to take the pieces step by step and eliminate each possible cause. After this exercise, I'm sure you have a much better understanding of your setup. When future problems come up, it will not be so daunting after what you have learned.

Hey Guys,
Same Yerf Dog Rover 34800. New Question. I was noticing my Rover sitting in the yard on flat ground the other day and it appearred that the top part of my front wheels were tilted in on both sides what I think is too far. I would say the top is about 1 inch further in than the bottom. Is there an adjustment in the front suspension or a ball joint issue? Just looking for some feedback before I jump into something with it. Thanks

Could you post a picture of the front end setup? Crank the wheel over to one side so we can see the spindle and joints.

With the single a-arm, your camber is fixed on the front and dependent on arm height.
1. If the wheels are tilted in, it may be due to sagging shocks - Increase the preload and see how the wheel changes angle.
2. If you have play between the spindle and arm, look for worn bushings at the spindle.
3. If only one side looks off and the ride height is even left to right, you may have a bent spindle shaft.
