Standard Jetting

L: 2,25 turn

H: 0,75 turn

These are the minimum settings that should 
not be lower

5. Setting up the Raket 95 

engine.

Your new engine does not require a lot of 

setting up. It is essentially only the carbu-

rettor that has varying setup alternatives.  

1.

Start with a default setting for the carbu-

rettor. Carefully turn both of the adjust-

ing screws for High Speed (H) and Low 

Speed (L) the whole way so that they 

are fully closed. After that, open the High 

Speed screw (H) 0.75 turns and the Low 

Speed screw (L) 2.25 turns.

2.

Next you should screw out the idling 

adjustment screw so that it just misses 

making contact with the lever on the 

throttle shaft. After that, screw in the idling 

adjustment screw 1.5 turns. This is now 

the default setting for the carburettor that 

guarantees that you will be able to start 

your engine.

3.

Start the engine. If it stops as soon as you 

no longer press the start button, but con-

tinues to run if you carefully give throttle, 

then you can try screwing in the idling 

adjustment screw by half a turn. Don’t 

overdo it however, because the engine 

should be able to idle without the centrifu-

gal clutch engaging and thus beginning to 

pull the kart along with it.

4.

Now you can drive a lap or two of the 

track so that the engine warms up.

5.

Begin the fine tuning with the Low Speed 

screw (L). Allow someone to hold the 

brake to ensure that the kart cannot begin 

to roll, and press quickly on the throttle. 

The engine should answer directly and 

increase speed until the centrifugal clutch 

engages. If the engine hesitates or even 

stops then you should test the effect of 

slightly increasing the Low Speed screw. 

Start with half a turn. When you have 

found a setting at which you can apply the 

gas and the engine responds immediately 

then it is time to move onto the setting of 

the High Speed screw (H).

6.

Drive a few laps of the track so that the 

engine is really warm. Listen thereafter 

to how the engine sounds when you are 

driving on the track’s longest straight. The 

High Speed screw is correctly adjusted 

when the engine begins to splutter at the 

very end of the straight. If it starts to splut-

ter any earlier then you should carefully 

screw in the High Speed screw one tenth 

of a turn. WARNING! Do not overdo it 

and screw in the High Speed screw too 

much, because then the engine will not 

receive enough fuel and as a result not 

enough oil, which can lead to piston and 

cylinder damage. The High Speed screw 

should always remain opened at least a 

0,75 turn.

7.

When you have found exactly the right 

setting for the High Speed screw you 

should check the settings of the Low 

Speed screw and the idling adjustment 

screw again. You can feel satisfied when:

- the engine idles easily without pulling 

the kart, and you hear the occasional 

pinging sound from the clutch but not so 

often.

- the engine responds directly when 

you apply the gas, both when idling and 

when you are driving on the track and, for 

instance, have taken your foot off the gas 

going into a curve and then apply the gas 

again.

- the engine winds up properly on the 

track’s straight sections, but begins to 

splutter at the very end of the longest 

straight.

8.

If you find after having driven for a while 

that you are no longer able to achieve a 

correct setup then it may be time to clean 

the carburettor. See the section about ser-

vicing the engine.
