Carburetor setting
The air/fuel mixture will vary depending on
G
atmospheric conditions. Therefore, it is nec-
essary to take into consideration the air pres-
sure, ambient temperature, humidity, etc.,
when adjusting the carburetor.
Perform a test run to check for proper engine
G
performance (e.g., throttle response) and
spark plug(-s) discoloration or fouling. Use
these readings to determine the best possi-
ble carburetor setting.
NOTE:
It is recommended to keep a record of all car-
buretor settings and external conditions (e.g.,
atmospheric conditions, track/surface condi-
tions, lap times) to make future carburetor set-
ting easier.
WARNING
The carburetor is a part of the fuel line.

Therefore, be sure to install it in a well-
ventilated area, away from flammable

Flames may shoot out from the pipe if the
engine backfires while it is being started.

retor has been removed.
