yeah justadjust the idle correctors while he is testing it, (wind them in but remember by how much) you will have to wind the idle screw in too as it wont run that lean so will need to be adjusted, dont drive it far like this tho as it will bun out the valves and when you rev it, it will take ages to drop down again

Just had my MOT and the guy adjusted them to 4% CO. What, is that too lean then?

krobinson, have you noticed any power getting lost at high rpm's with those 28mm chokes?

I suppose you wouldn't know as your probably running the engine in at fairly low rev's.

are you gonna get it r/r?
