wesw Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Turn the knobs all the way in clockwise then mark or remember a spot and turn them out 9 full turns counterclockwise. Try to start ur bike it should idle but fast idle if it won't u need to see what pilot u have and needle.if idles quickly u need to sync with a sync tool now getthem to pull same vac after they are the same turn the knobs in to bring idle down the same amt. Also it will be impossible to get to run good with out a sync tool borrow or buy one. If need help pm me will walk u thru pj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
