bigboybanshee Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 If I were you I'd try jumping up the pilot one notch and/or bump the needle clip up to either the middle or second from the blunt end...but don't do both at the same time!! I'm running a similar setup with the exception of the K&N pods and run a 30 pilot with the needle second from the blunt end. When did you notice the sputter? Have you been running this setup for long or is it something you recently have done? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotulMonsta Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 Try turning out the air screw. You can get close to 5 turns out before it will fall out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing with that is if you have to turn your air screws out that far you should go up in jetting. Not only that the air screw is more of an idle and off idle adjustment.

PlaynSand Posted April 19, 2004 Report Share Posted April 19, 2004 Mine had a bad mid range sputter and I tried 25,27.5, 30, 32.5 pilots and could not get rid of the sputter until I lowered the needle to the second from the top , mine likes the 25 pilot with 1 turn out on the air screws or 27.5 pilots with 2.5 turns out. Just lower the needle one clip and try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Banchetta Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Agreed, just lower the needle and go from there..the pilot won't control mid-throttle range. A rich needle will make a shee run extremely shitty and not want to even kick into powerband......Try the 3 clip, if that doesn't cure it all, then go to the 2nd clip from the top....
