Pilot Screws

<< < (2/2)

Dave M:
Did a few miles today.  :)  :)  :)

Might try another 1/8 turn out.

dave400:
Dave, I have standard exhaust air filter etc, the book say's 2 turns out + -  a 1/2 I have to say "that is   bollox", I'm still tweeking them after a year....good luck fella  ;D

Dave  ;)

Dave M:
Thanks Dave.

I tried an extra eigth turn out and I think that was a bit too far so I've put them back to 2 1/4.

I'll run it for a while and see what it's like.

Miles better though!

Dave M:
I've had all  the air screws out and given them a good clean and made sure they're all seating properly and am now running at 2 3/4 turns out which is + 1 turn on what Mr Haynes says.

It's running really well now with a very slight hesitation when opening up at around 4k revs in a high gear. However I'm happy and can live with that.

Just need to tweak the balance now.

I've done nearly 500 miles now and overall I'm very happy with the way it runs!
