On a somewhat related note, how do you guys tune your stock carbies? I know I'm running rich at the moment by the soot and black smoke, but how do I get the sweet spot?
i did a write up a while ago on the zook carby .
look at your plugs, pics are better.
Idle mixture tuned to factory specs, is a bit rich. but the engine idles nice.
What mods do you have?
Unless you have rejetted your carb, There is no mixture setting as such besides the idle mixture.
Check your float level (should be 7mm). If this is out you may run rich.
