    there almost all idle mix screws as opposed to an air screw....

    this is an air screw (screw is befor the slide) out to lean (more air)

    this is a mix screw (screw past the slide) out to rich (more fuel)

    mehmet is sayin sommin about an engine rebuild.. can bring the engine/carb down and ill sling it in a frame to dyno it? upto you.. that or i mission there on a train (will have to cover my tickets and some foodies/somwhere to crash tho) living the other side of thew country has its advantages, it also has its downside

    lol wow thats actualy far, im guna have to have a think about that, how long would it take to setup on the dyno and that would it be worth waiting there and taking it back or would i have to drop then go and u drop or i collect another day or something?

    get 48 through 60 in the pilot jets, the needles and some light rollers (just had to put 9g's in a 178 to even get it to rev up, happens when you get harsh wiht the timings) needle's are a must.
