ADJUSTMENTS

Carburetor/Idle RPM

Carburetor re-jetting can be performed to compensate for altitude and/or temperature

changes. If the vehicle is to be operated at various altitudes and temperatures, certain

adjustments can be made to improve its operation and driveability. Above 6000 feet (1800

m) the engine air/fuel mixture becomes overly rich. An engine loses approximately 3% of

its power for each 1000-foot (305 m) increase in elevation. Although this power cannot be

regained, changes to the carburetor and drive system can be made to allow more efficient

operation.

NOTE: Contact your dealer for altitude adjustments. Your dealer has the training and

special tools required to perform these modifications.
