Needle overview
The jet needles available are shown in the following table.
Column 2 corresponds to a needle in the standard position.
Column 1 corresponds to a needle which is half a clip leaner.
Column 3 corresponds to a needle which is half a clip richer.
Column 4 specifies the diameter of the first cylindrical part of the needle. The smaller the diameter of the first
cylindrical part of the needle, the richer the carburation. The larger the diameter of the first cylindrical part of
the needle, the leaner the carburation. The first cylindrical part of the needle has the greatest influence in the

The idle setting of the carburetor has a big influence on the start-
ing behavior, stable idling, and the response to throttle opening.
This means that an engine with a correctly set idle speed is eas-
ier to start than if the idle speed is set wrongly.
Info
The carburetor and its components are subject to
increased wear caused by engine vibration. Wear can
result in malfunctioning.
