satts Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 I have played with idle screws from 1/4 turn out to 2.5 turns out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satts Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Plugs are dark nearly black and seemed to run the same with 27.5 pilot, no air leaks either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheerider1026 Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Have you played with the air screws? 290 main sounds lean to be at sea level imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheerider1026 Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Check the choke tube between the carbs. Make sure you don't have the slides in the wrong carbs ( they be backwards if so) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickedcarbine Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 It's toting the line for sure since it's been getting cold. I'd try more pilot as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satts Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 Choke tube is on tight, slides in right way ,have tried between 1/2 a turn out to 2.5 turns on the screws Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
satts Posted January 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 When it idles ,it's fine but if I hit throttle it bogs then revs out fine BUT if I pull choke out it dies as if I'm flooding it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirtydownunder Posted January 9, 2015 Report Share Posted January 9, 2015 fmfs like 27.5-30 pilot. checked coil and stator, cap resistances ? maybe cut 1/2" off the spark wires n screw them back on, if they check out shouldnt be running rich with that jetting in this temp. 30 pilot / 260 main is stock fmf jetting with lid on. so your 290 would be about right with you no lid and hot temp. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
