FUEL SYSTEM/CARBURETION
3.10
The jet needle and needle jet have an effective
operating range from approximately 1/8 to 7/8 throttle
opening. The amount of fuel delivered during this
range relies upon the jet needle clip position, as well
as the needle jet size and other specifications.
The main jet affects fuel delivery at 1/4 throttle and
consistently increases to full throttle opening.

VENT SYSTEMS
The fuel tank vent line supplies atmospheric pressure
to the fuel in the tank. This line must be free of kinks
and restrictions to prevent lean mixture and possible
engine damage. All vent lines must be properly routed
to prevent damage to the line and to prevent
contaminants from entering the fuel system.
FLOAT HEIGHT
1. Invert the carburetor and remove float bowl.
2. Rest the float tongue lightly on the inlet needle
valve pin without compressing the spring.
3. The float should be parallel ±1mmtothegasket
surface on all youth model ATV carburetors.
When setting the float, be sure inlet needle valve
spring is not compressed. If adjustment is
necessary, bend the tongue slightly.
