thats the post im talking about.
![]() blaine after the needle adjustment, that's letting in more air to the mixture, correct? if that is so, will i have to re-adjust the pilot? say screw it in all the way and back it out maybe half(1.25) of what i have at the moment(2.5) thank you in advanced for the rapid replies. ive had this gz for awhile and stumbled upon this website lately. its revived my interest in the little thing. before it just sat in my backyard under a tarp. :o:o Login or Register to Remove Ads |

pilot jet is inside the float bowl of the carb.
this is what you are referring to right? the air/fuel mixture is the one on the outside of the bowl that i drilled the cap out of. is this the one you mean? not quite sure how i would adjust the pilot while running. Login or Register to Remove Ads |

North America must be the only country in the world that legislates for vehicles that won't run at their best , from the factory. Every other country lets the manufacturers set up the vehicles for maximum efficiency. I've never had to touch the carb on my European GZ. :mad:
