J. Allen Posted June 9, 2008 Author Report Posted June 9, 2008 Yeah, I gotta show my artistic side now and then...LOL. Keep in mind, the leaner/richer arrow correspond to clip position... I understand fully, but based on their descriptions I'm just not sure what others are recommending. Well, there's only five and I know that 2 are no good. Seems to me that a bog in the midrange would correspond to not enough fuel, so I'm going to try one down (toward needle taper) from the stock position. If my novice understanding of carberetion is correct a lower clip position allows the needle to reside higher in the housing. Thus, after the throttle has been opened past 1/4 , the fuel flows past the needle. The flow of fuel past the needle is influenced by both the taper of the needle and the height of the needle. By lowering the clip I'm allowing the needle jet to be raised just a little higher and therefore should increase the amount of fuel supplied. Quote
dajogejr Posted June 9, 2008 Report Posted June 9, 2008 You are correct. However, a bog normally is created by a rich condition, not a lean one... Quote
