If the muffler smokes heavily, at the same time as the engine “splatters” a great deal, the setting is too “rich”. Turn the H- needle clockwise until you find the setting that sounds right.

Carburettors in E-Tech and CARB-EPA designs (CARB II-EPA II only applies to USA and Canada)

On these types of carburettor the H- and L-needles can be adjusted within ex- tremely tight limits, to among other things, comply with the stringent demands with regard to the hydrocarbon and nitrogen oxide content in the exhaust fumes.

The carburettor needles on these carburettors are fitted with plastic sleeves with movement limiters, so-called caps.

To carry out adjustment when replacing needles or the entire carburettor the engine must be under load. This is achieved by fitting a Trimmy Fix with the specified length and diameter of trimmer cord. Consequently, the stated speed will be much lower than with “normal” carburettor adjustment when the engine may run freely.

After replacing the needles or the entire carburettor on a CARB-EPA approved engine, adjustment must be carried out according to the instructions below.

The combiguard or trim guard must be fitted when adjusting the H-needle.
