jetting issues...

[harwood39]

Ok. I have worked on rejetting my carb. Im gettin frustrated with it. I have tuned it and it rips all the way through the throttle range. But, when its coming back to idle its slow at getting there and bounces a couple times... It seems to be running rich at idle, smokes at idle when warm but not anywhere else. New bottom end and top end, boyesen reeds, procircuit pipe and silencer. Im runnin a 40:1 mix with ams oil interceptor oil. In ND so not high elevation. air screw doesnt seem to do much.

Main Jet: 320
Pilot jet: 40
Needle: Stock needle, 3rd notch

if anyone can help that would be great.

also there is some drool on the case coming from the cylinder/pipe fitting

UPDATE: got a 30 pilot jet installed... No more drool/spooge... but my idle problem is still there...

Any ideas?

how is the filter?

[harwood39]

filter is a lil dirty but nothing major, one rides worth of dust... Im dropping the needle down a notch to see what that does...

ok. well i have been doin more research. I have been told by a few people now to just tune the bike and take the idle out of it. Is it common for 2-stroke mx bikes to be tuned with no idle???

Sometimes two strokes run with no idle. Realy no big deal. One of my friends Max would run his race bike with no idle.

alright. i set it for no idle, runs so much better, dont understand it tho...
