Find someone with a exhaust sniffer or read the plugs to see if you are indeed running too lean. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) |

What do you have for Jets now?
I have found a simple way to do this. Call Aircooled.net... They have a spreadsheet that has known good setups for specific locations and altitudes. You need to know your engine size...that is about it. They sell all the jets and venturis and emulsion tubes...so they make suggestions that work for you...or they will swap them out until you are happy... Good group to work with on this topic. Rich |
