If it makes a difference then you can tweak it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #60152 ravioli (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 12 Re:Carb troubles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Curt, Great info, I appreciate it.

Moderator Posts: 4871 Re:Carb troubles 11 Months, 2 Weeks ago   Well, if the pilots are a 50 and a 60, and they are "measured" the same way as a stock 35, then yes, that would be an issue. Some co.'s mark their jets different than others (Dynojet for instance) but if he doubled the amount of fuel being received on the pilot circuit, that would be Monster Rich! I could not confirm the jet sizes through the catalog, but if that's the case, and Ravioli is using one of these, it could explain his recent problem. How's that for a long winded YES.

More dense means more air going into the carb. More air going into the carb means lean. That's my story and I'm stickin to it. Until someone proves me wrong that is. Then I'll change it.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
