CARBURETOR TUNING BY BIFFEREWT FAILURE SYMPTOM
SYMPTOM
With full throttle;
• Rev peak too low
• Doesn't rev up quickly
• Poor power output (Rich)
With full throttle;
1 • Hesitates
• Pings or knocks
• Revs up out power not
sufficient.
Performs dull or inter-
j mittent in range 1/4

Hesitates in range 1/4
—
3/4
throttle opening and torque
is poor.
Responds to gradual but not
to quick throttle opening.
Responce too sharp to
control
AJUSTMENT
• Decrease MJ size.
• Decrease gradually by 1 —
2 sizes while observing
piston crown color.
© Decrease PWJ size.
® Increase MJ size.
« increase gradually by 1 —
2 sizes while observing
piston crown color.
• Increase PWJ size.
Decrease NJ size to make
mixture leaner.
Increase NJ size to make
mixture richer.
Decrease MJ size because of
too rich main system.
Increase PJ size or lower JN
position*
REMARKS
• Check if choke is on.
• Check if not overflowing.
• Check if air not leaking in.
• Check if ignition timing not too
fast.
