intermediate speed operation, irregular engine
operation and poor acceleration will result.
Whether or not the richness of the mixture is
proper is hard to be determined by means of
the spark plug and therefore, it should be
judged from your feeling of actual engine oper-

In this case, step down the jet needle clip by
one groove or 0.5 groove and move up the
