Frequently Asked Questions
The 22.5 indicates the size calibration for fuel flow through the bleed hole, matched to specific engine tuning needs.
If idle is too rich (black smoke, fouled plugs), go smaller; too lean (high idle, popping), go larger. Test in 2.5 increments.
Designed for Mikuni FVM28 carbs, ideal for both stock replacement and performance tuning setups.
Often yes, especially if changing air filter, exhaust, or altitude. Pilot jets primarily affect idle/low throttle.
Installation Guide
Tools Required
- Small flathead screwdriver
- Jeweler's screwdriver or needle nose pliers
- Carb cleaner
