    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Fuel mix and air screw settings

What are the correct settings for the fuel mixture screws and air screws for a dynojet stage 3 kit. I have pods, aftermarket exhaust and a yoshi pipe.

Adjust them individually for the highest, smoothest idle you can get. 1 1/2 to 2 turns is a good starting point but each carb may need a different setting.
 
What is the best way to do that? With a vaccum tool or just unplug the other 3 spark plugs? I have never done this before.

Thanks alot Billy for answering all of my random questions tonight, my mind is racing and I am trying to catch up with it.
 
If your pilot circuit is clean and the screws tips are in good shape you'll hear a sweet spot when you get each one right.
 
You are talking about the fuel mixture screws right? What about the air jets that are located right where the filters mount? Is there a specific setting or do I just have to fiddle with them along with the fuel screws at the same time?

You should have CV carbs on the '80 and you have fixed air jets with no adjustment. The only way to get more air to the pilot circuit is to swap jets altogether which is usually not necessary. The mixture screws generally give enough adjustment range to compensate for intake and exhaust mods.
