Jet needle adjustment
(For EUROPE)
On the carburetors used in the YZ250, the main
nozzle is press-fitted, so it can not be replaced.
Therefore, carburetor setting requires the change
of the jet needle.
1. The jet needle setting parts, having the same
taper angle, are available in different straight
portion diameters and in different taper start-
ing positions.
