i switched from 170 and 60 to 165(?) and 58
Foxx4Beaver:
check both the clamps on either side of the carb (airbox & intake) to be sure they're snugged up enough.
what was it doing to make you want to lean it out?
did you adjust the air screw after making the changes?

it did nothing! i switched to bigger jets for the winter and now smaller for the summer, i did let it warm up a little before i set te air screw then but since it idled to hig and i could not set down the ilde i set it in 1 quarter so that it would idle a little lower, today i turned the air screw out one 1 again and started it to see if it would idle wich he did at a low rpm to! but out of the exhaust comes cartoon styled smoke rings so does the air screw turned out make it richer?
