Stock Carb Mods - Summary

[boomer8201]

Ive seen them at auto parts stores, I thought about buyin one but it's not needed if you're running open airbox with #40 air jet. I could be wrong but pretty sure thats what I read. They're like 8-9 bucks and didn't seem worth it if I don't need it.

I was talking about the clear breather tube. It said that he plugged up the hole at the snorkle end and put a unifilter at the carb end, or am I reading it wrong?

[boomer8201]

Right, he did, but he said you don't have to if you have the smaller air jet. Im pretty sure thats what I picked out of it. If I had the time right now I'd go thru and look for you but I dont. just take a peep at the first post. I think its in there somewhere.

Got most of this stuff done to run open airbox. Just need my #40 airjet and allen head screws for the float bowl because I tore the stock ones apart getting them out. even vice grips werent workin since they were so rounded and thin. I got a disced endcap and a big gun cdi comming and can't wait to race those guys that were gettin me by a length or 2!

anybody know where to order a #40 airjet??? I've looked online but can't find one for the mikuni carb anywhere. Is there a different number I should be looking for? or is it for a different carb? any help appreciated

You should just do the alternative and JB weld it, then drill the hole like OMR told us about. That's what I'm doing.

[boomer8201]

yeah thought about that too, but I don't have one of those little *ss drill bits. I guess I could buy one, just thought buyin the jet would be easier.

I did research that part number 707200187 OMR left as the #40 air jet. I found a page that says "bombardier quest max carburator parts." If this jet I ordered at my local shop isnt the right one I'll order one off that page or at least tell my shop what the part number is for. for some reason they couldn't look it up based on the part number. Guess I'll find out in a few days, hopefully sooner, I wanna ride!!

went and got the airjet today, it's a little longer then the stock one but that shouldnt matter, right? its only letting in air and its not like theres a special venturi effect, it's just limiting the amount of air comming in. my endcap and cdi should be here friday, hopefully its nice enough out and I can take it for a little test ride without having to take it down the street.

Another question...

With all these mods and a better flowing exhaust how many turns out on the pilot screw jet? the dj kit says 2 I think.

[OMR]

With the more aggressive cdi's the pilot screw needs to start at 3 turns out.

For racing or airlid off you may need to go 3 1/2 turns out.
