carb pilot screw
« on: September 12, 2021, 05:26:56 PM »
On my 1972 Honda CB500 K1 I've noticed my spark plugs seem a little sooty and the electrod insulation is not quite the light tan/grey colour that it should be, I screwed the pilot screw out to the workshop manual setting and it does seem a little heavy on fuel, any ideas of the best solution to weakening the mixture?

Are all the plugs the same?

Try new air cleaners,
