You can try raising the clips on the needles a notch or two (this would be positions 2 or 1 counting down from the top of the needles). The air bleeder screws wont have much effect going from mid to high throttle. The needle controls the middle and has significant overlap into the high (and low) ranges. You may need to richen your bleeder screws to compensate for the leaner needle settings.

X2. Try the needle on the 2nd clip down from the blunt end. Or drop your main one and see how it feels.

 

Go down one at a time...don't want to run too lean.

 

 

:headbang:

thanks for the reply but i pulled the carb and it was on the second (from top) so tried the first and it still spits and sputters when the bands kick in at full thottle. plugs r still wet so figuring on buying 240-260 and see what happens?

I was thinking you should be at around. 290 on your mains at that temp or maybe even 300. Iam at the same altitude and I run 300 withe pro circuits during the winter

Hey Easy03,

 

I think Special Ed ( :rolleyes: JK man I couldn't resist) and I were assuming you got those wet plugs under the right conditions. If you look at my sig., I'm at a slightly lower elevation than you (900ft), but you said a "very small" filter and wet plugs.

 

You should be a notch above where I'm at on your mains jetting. See my sig. (I just switched to my winter jetting mains = 300) If you go with 27.5 pilots, needle clips in the 4th position and 310 mains this time of year, all you'll need to do when the weather warms up is drop your mains to 290 for the summer and tweak your air bleed screws open 1/4 turn.

 

Do a plug chop to confirm but I guarantee you'll be right on the doorstep - maybe a hair rich (that's a good thing).
