TO ADJUST CARBURETOR (See Fig. 30j

The carburetor has been preset at the factory and adjust
ment should not be necessary. However, minor adjust

ment may be required to compensate fordifferences in fuel,

temperature, altitude or load. If the carburetor does need

adjustment, proceed as follows;

In general, turning idle mixture valve In (clockwise) de

creases the supply of fuel to the engine giving a leaner fuel/
air mixture. Turning the idle mixture valve out (counter
clockwise) increases the supply of fuel to the engine giving
a richer fuel/air mixture.

IMPORTANT:

DAMAGE TO THE NEEDLE VALVE AND

THE SEAT IN CARBURETOR MAY RESULT IF SCREW IS
TURNED IN TOO TIGHT.

PRELIMINARY SETTING -

•

Air cleaner assembly must be assembled to the carbu
retor when making carburetor adjustments.

•

Be sure the throttle control cable is adjusted properly

(see above).

•

With engine off turn idle mixture valve in (clockwise)

closing it finger tight and then turn out (counterclock
wise) 1 full turn.
