Hello All
I’ve been assembling various bits ‘n pieces to make a Bulsader (535 Bullet engine in a Crusader frame). The head has been ported to match a 32mm Mikuni, and it breathes through a large conical filter and exhausts via a fairly free-flow silencer. Everything else is standard.
This afternoon I attempted to start it for the first time, and it ran (sort of...)!
In order to make it run even a little I had to wind out the idle mixture screw 3.5 turns, so the idle jet is obviously too large. It’s marked 3.25. Even with this I had to keep blipping the throttle to prevent it stalling.
Question is, what would be a good starting point for the idle jet? I believe the Mikuni and Mikcarb share the same jet system and size designations...
Thanks
