WHAT IS the absolute maximum you can turn out fuel screws

[bluemonster1]

Like the title states,how many turns is safe before the screws will fall out under the motor due to riding and vibrations .I thought someone said 2 1/4 turns out max or was it 2 1/2 which is getting kinda close.Daman>you know or what????? I know you are watching every move I make on here...lol

I have always thought that at 3 turns you quit and change jets

That's what I was gonna say that I've read on here.

 

[bluemonster1]

ok guys that is great info..thanks alot.Will probably go to the next size pilot.

If you have to turn it out more than 2 turns, its time to stop and go to the next size pilot and start over on the fuel screw adjustments.

3 turns is the max. 3 1/2 & they are gone.

 

[bluemonster1]

And when they are gone Turk,I remember you telling me that a person would then have to buy new carbs because they don't sell fuel screws separtely.

Do you think 42.5's out 2 turns will solve my bog or are 45's required?

 

[bluemonster1]

I wander why Yamaha only put 40 pilost in 01/SRX and only 42.5 pilots in 02/SRX.Yet on the Yamaha Spec sheets they use 45 pilots on the 500SXR,700SXR,and 700MM sleds.

I agree with tom,, that circuit will only flow so much,after 2-2 1/4 your not
getting much more that'll help,jump to the next size and start over @ 1.5..

like they said if you must go past 2 turns go to the next size pilot .

Same advise as before....45 pilots and fuel screws at 1 1/2 turns out !! Problem solved !!

 

[bluemonster1]

lilracer I went and ordered 45 pilots,will be in on the 26 or 27th.Will give them a shot like you suggest.Thanks.

 

[lilracer]

i'm sure it will solve your issues !

and if the temps keep climbing the way they are,there will be no snow to test on properly.Do not like the way the season is starting.Where is all the damn snow that we are used to having,going to be 0 C. on xmas day.Way above normal for me.
