MIXTURE ADJUSTMENT
• The main jet, jet needle and air screw affect the mixture adjust-
ment.
Before adjusting the air-fuel mixture, make sure that the float
height is correct and the vacuum inlet hose and air cleaner are
in good condition and free of obstructions.
• Ride the vehicle about one kilometer to determine at which
throttle position the engine lacks power or performs poorly.
Then, check the color and appearance of the spark plug and
piston crown.
• The air-fuel mixture can be made “richer” or “leaner” by adjust-
ing the main jet, jet needle or air screw. Throttle position deter-
mines how accurate the adjustment will be.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is tested at 1/2 throttle and either a too rich or too
lean mixture is indicated, then make adjustments with the jet
needle.
• Install the air cleaner case.
• Apply a small quantity of THREAD LOCK “1342” to the threads
of the screws
