Title: Mixed up fuel and air main jets?!!!
Post by RycaShawn on 07/13/11 at 21:31:54

What size is the stock pilot air jet? It seems as though the pervious owner of my bike swapped the pilot air jet and the main fuel jet. From what it looks like, it would be really rich right? It looks like the air jet has a 230 marking whereas the main fuel jet is a 145, correct?

I can believe what a POS this bike was when I picked it up. It sure is going to be happy again once my conversion is done!

Speaking of jets, I'm running a 96mm Weisco piston with the Web cam. Will I need to go bigger than a 155 main jet?

145 is right for a stock main

I don't know where 230 comes from

jets sizes will depend on the intake and exhaust you use.

I'd hate to assume they were switched by the previous owner. I'm hoping someone has their carb out and can check their air jet...

Yea, the air one pilot 2 should say 230 on it. Pilot 1 is 45.

and what happens if you don't have the washer under the main fuel jet?

check the main jet, you may have left the washer out from under the jet. this will let the slide suck the whole assembly up and you get a lot more gas then needed.

I definitely have to buy a new one. Previous owner really jacked things up here.
