@unlimited : dont just mod the blow pipe, it only makes ur engine cooler and air less dense, mod the air filter too.. and then adjust the A/F ratio..

mod done.
By the way, Isn't that the pipe that sucks air into the engine should be replaced? the other pipe blows air out of the engine so theres no importance in it. whats more important is the air that goes inside the engine.
Thats my opinion so can anyone explain it further to me.
Thanks guys.
God speed.

you will need to play around with the a/f setting's,

before i changed my Main jet, i had done tip #3, Iridium plug, and a custom air filter, and i was at a full 3 turns on my a/f.It was Tuned by a pro from Yamaha factory abroad. It's not really recommended to not use a filter, it would be better if you just modify it.

for eg: soak the stock filter in water for about 30 minutes. then use a cutting blade ( not a kitchen knife) something from hardware to cut out the paper element. Don't remove the metal plate, then but some Scotch Brite Brillo pad ( used for scrubbing pans ) cut it to fit into the Plastic housing of the stock filter, Use two pieces of the Brillo. then your done.

after that it's just fine tuning your a/f and idle to the right setting for the best performance.

Try it bro, for your safety, you don't want to get some dirt or thick dust in your carb. not goo! ok? just try it.

nicely done again by goff... or use old Yamaha Vega foam filter.. use the yellow side only and cut it according to the size of the replaced paper filter.. works great too because it's pre oiled... it catches dust better..

4. DONT over fill the oil, it will torture ur engine, optimum is at medium level (for Auto Clutch) and 95% position (for Hand/Manual Clutch).

---

guys just a newbie question

95% position? is it 800ml?


and why is it that when i open my trotle 1/3 there a puf puf puf sound.. i tried traxas bike and it has no puf sound.

yes it is 800ml of oil. and i bet the puff puff puff is still an a/f problem, Just keep adjusting it some more, and always remember what your last amount of turns are.

I have noticed, i will adjust my a/f and after about two weeks of riding i have to adjust it again, as i believe the carb is settling in place for the adjustment. but not too sure.

I just changed my Main jet, as i still have stock exhaust. once in a while i get a puff as if the carb isn't getting enough air. right now i am at a full two turns with the new main. i was at i think 2 1/2 turns and my mix was too lean, i could smell the gas every time i went to start the bike. and it always had a chok chok sound. right now it's ok, but i think i need to go about 2 1/8 turn.

hey guys, I did the tip #3 recently and problems came out.

1. white smoke comes out of my pipe.
2. you can smell gas on the exhaust.
3. harder to start the engine, needs the choke to start the engine.

can you help me guys resolve these problems? By the way, I adjusted the air fuel mixture to 2 turns and lowered a bit the idle speed.
what settings can you recommend? I'll put the hose back if unable to fix these problems.

thanks in advance guys.

Correct me if I'm wrong, adjusting the a/f mixture CLOCKWISE is making the mixture rich and COUNTER CLOCKWISE is making it lean. I had 2 turns and gas smells on the exhaust and also white smoke comes out. if the mixture is to rich, then I have to make it more than 2 turns.
