Title: air mixture re-plug?
Post by tomtaz1975 on 06/08/09 at 17:33:15

After 2 weeks of "way too lean" condition after putting on an aftermarket muffler, I finally drilled out the air mixture plug. First things first, that made one hell of a difference. I still need to increase the main and pilot jets, and thin out the spacer...but I am much happier with how she acts just by making the mixture richer.

Anyways...has anyone ever put a plug (not the original of course) back in to keep the screw clean? Either way, if I try to find something, should the material make much difference? I was thinking a small rubber plug.

I know...it's probably fine without a plug since I haven't seen anyone mention anything...

You can just leave it....

Back in the old, old days, they didn't plug'em up... they just sat out in the open like all the other screws...
:-?

And if you think about it, carbs on vehicles have no covers for the screws, and there's a lot of stuff getting blown around under the hood on those things.
