Set ignition timing at lowest idle speed (below) 1000rpms
Set it to 6* advance
If it is hardly idling, adjust idle speed screw to increase idle speed but not over (1000)
Check Air/Fuel gauge
if it's above 14 you are lean, below.. rich
Mixture screws should start about 1.5 turns out.
2 or more turns and you need larger idle jets
less then 1 you need smaller idle jets
once you have the right jets you adjust your mixture screws evenly and dial it in at around 12-13 air fuel ratio. It will run with 10ish, but it will go through lots of gas.


once you get it rolling you can start to adjust the main jets. at WOT check your gauge.. lean or rich?? adjust your jets acordingly. 145 jets are leaner then 160s etc.
we'll get to that once it's mobile.
