Carburetor Adjustments (if necessary):
Your new carburetor is pre-set from the factory for general use. However, environmental factors (altitude, temperature) or specific engine conditions may require fine-tuning. Most modern carburetors have limited adjustment screws. Refer to your engine's service manual for specific adjustment procedures.
- Idle Speed Screw: Adjusts the engine's RPM at idle. Turn clockwise to increase idle speed, counter-clockwise to decrease.
- Mixture Screws (if present): These control the fuel-air mixture. Adjust in small increments (e.g., 1/8 turn) and observe engine response. Turning clockwise typically leans the mixture, counter-clockwise enriches it. Always return to factory recommended settings if unsure.
