Bandit Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 When i pull the choke to start it, it starts on first kick but i have to kill the choke in about 5 sec cause the idle go so high. When i kill the choke it idles fine. But when i run out the rpm's between gears, it falls on its face right before the top of powerband.

fox_forma Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 what size carb is it? I had the trinity 2into1 33pwk, i was at a 47-49 pilot, depending on weather, needle in the 3rd clip, i think it was an eek needle, and a 185 main. In case it is a 33pwk that was my jetting. You could still be lean, or have an air leak causing the RPM's to jump Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeepman380 Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 (edited) So It will pull fine on top but it falls out in the midrange? What are your mods and what jets do you have in it right now?

Bandit Posted March 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 the main is a #158 dont know the pilot. I cant get it out. the only mods are FMF fattys and K&n filter no snorkle and vent holes in lid.It falls out at the top of powerband right before you shift gears.

fox_forma Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 so what size carb is it? If its a 33mm, you are way lean on the main. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohiobanshee Posted March 1, 2007 Report Share Posted March 1, 2007 The only thing I have different than you is a coolhead and mine is doing the same thing. I have a 172 main and a 52 pilot, I am to rich,plugs are black.Going to order a couple smaller mains and pilots and rejet when the wether warms up a little.

It's been a long time ago since I had stock cylinders and T5s but I think I remember running a main size in the 180s I believe...180-185 maybe. 158 just sounds really lean.
