Hey all wise in the knowledge of everything XS
Me? I have an 81' xs650 engine w stock bs34 Mikuni,pods, and open pipes.
I'm been relentlessly working at getting the fuel mix correct
Bought a kit from mikes with new jets (145) needles,and drill bit for drilling out the slide.
Runs wo choke on now but still runs lean.
Engine and pipes real hot and light back fire,white smoke in idle down and lengthy idle down at that
Little smoke and light back fire right in the middle range.
One step on the directions for installing the kit lists an air fuel screw adjustment.
The area where that screw is is plugged up by factory due to epa standards.
Can I drill this plug out and locate the screw?
Or should I go up in sizes on my main pilot?
Drilled out my stock ones w a 1/16 drill bit to experiment and no great results
Was gonna move up from there just to experiment.
Any suggestions greatly appreciated
Thanks
