New carb was in much better condition overall, diaphgrams like new. Excellent. Put in 52,5 and 165 and lifted the needle one slot, pilot jet is still rich, highest idle at screw 1/4 turns out. Main jet is a bit too small, few runs showed slight increase in power after WOT. Runs much better now, old carb had slightly torn diaphgram and also found out that my vacuum plug had developed a hole in it Grin

Thanks to you all for your replies, seems like the correct size for the pilot jet is surprisingly small and surprisingly large for the main jet.

You put all that money in the engine , if you want easy tuning and real good throttle response you should sell the stock carb and buy the mikuni vm36 kit from Lancer here in the Market Place. You will not be disappointed. Trust me on this one you will thank me later !

or ( not to take away from lancer) just but a one off ebay and buy the parts you need to make it work I believe it is cheaper . the parts are list on the forum under ENGINE: MORE POWER.

This was my plan, the winter is long so lots of time to find correct parts and adjust the carb. I'm too cheap to buy a kit Grin

.

I put the old idle mixture screw in as it has different needle profile than the new one, 1-3/4 turns out resulted highest idle, so it's all fine now.

Holiday starts tomorrow, so lots of testing in sight Cool
