Frequently asked questions

How do I adjust the high-speed mixture strength?

Gradually close the Needle-Valve until the engine runs at its maximum speed, setting it very slightly to the "rich" side of the peak r.p.m. setting.

What should I do if the engine idles unevenly?

Open the throttle; if it hesitates before picking up speed, the mixture is too rich and may require closing the Mixture Control Screw.

How do I set the minimum idling speed?

Turn the Throttle Stop Screw counter-clockwise if the engine runs too fast with the throttle closed.
