SETTING
Pilot system
The FLATCR carburetor is manufactured with
a pilot screw. The pilot screw adjustment
ranges from fully closed throttle to 1/4 open
throttle.
Main jet adjustment
The richness of the air-fuel mixture at full throt-
tle can be set by changing the main jet

If the air-fuel mixture is too rich or too lean, the
engine power will drop, resulting in poor accel-
eration.
