Throttle Synchronization Procedure-
Mikuni TM-38 Flatslide Carburetors
Mikuni TM-38 carburetors are synchronized at wide open
throttle without the engine running. The middle carburetor
on triples, and the PTO side carburetor on twins have a
non-adjustable set screw on the throttle shaft. This carbu-
retor is what the other carb(s) is synchronized to.

3. Hold throttle wide open and view position of
carburetor slide on base carburetor. (Middle carb on
triples, PTO carb on twins.)

carb opening.
