xXBlessedWithDeathXx Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 (edited) idk if there is a factory set for the idle but i went with what i think sounds good. its not to high but not low. it idles. i think it was set at 4 but i also have 35mm carbs. and make sure they are set the same. you want to do it for idle and once that is set, set them with a little throttle so you know both carbs are opening up at the same time.

banshee2 Posted May 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 all you want it to do it idle. not a sound like it could stall any second but a idle. so just set it to where it idles perfectly but not to low to stall?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animalman294 Posted May 28, 2008 Report Share Posted May 28, 2008 I think you are making it more complicated than it needs to be. Just listen to the motor at idle, and make sure both carbs are reading the same. Then rev it up and again make sure that it is reading the same on the CFM meter................. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
