I am having a problem, the low-end needle is not set correctly, but I cant get it right, it just revs high, the idle is set to 1mm and it idles, for a bit, but then the revs climb, if I rev it, it revs, settles to idle, but then the revs climb again, I thought the low end wasto lean, so I turned it out, but then it dies when you rev, I am lost with this, any ideas?
Up to this point when the engine revs climb again, I would make the carb idle opening smaller with the idle screw (anticlockwise) to keep the idle down. If they engine cannot sustain idle and dies after a few seconds idling, I would lean the low end little by little.
Play with the idle screw and the low end needle to get your best punch and at the same time to keep the idle reasonably LOW and STEADY.
