    air jet installation

    Got another question for all you great gurus. (unless you have constructive suggestions, please stay out of the conversation...thanks so much)

    When installing the air jet in the back of the carb under the airbox boot, do you seat it all the way in, or is it supposed to be screwed in only so far like the idle mixture screws? I didn't pay attention when removing it. Thanks again for all the help!

        How I would do it?

        I would say tighten till snug as well.

        Most important thing is the screwdriver fits the air jet.

        I make my own drivers for jet installation. I have found it best if the jet can fully seat on the driver without falling off, and no wider than the minor diameter of the threads.

        As with any jet.

        Although, I'm no "Guru."

        On with life.
