16.3 Carburetor
602506-10
The idle setting of the carburetor has a big influence on the starting behavior, on stable
idling, and on the vehicle response when the throttle is opened. This means that an
engine with a correctly set idle speed is easier to start than if the idle is set wrongly.
Info
The carburetor and its components are subject to greater wear due to engine
vibrations. Wear can lead to malfunctions.
The factory setting for the carburetor is set for the following values.
Altitude above sea level 500 m (1,640 ft)
Ambient temperature 20 °C (68 °F)
Super unleaded gasoline, mixed with 2-stroke engine oil (1:60) ( p. 120)
