and what are the factory needle settings of this engine?

Ok this is weird i am asking a question LOL. I have always used the 8 and 7.5 mm venturi's swapping through out the day never having to touch the idle. Now I put my PTM in a buggy and am going with the 6.5mm does the insert affect the idle screw or not? Meaning should I put the venturi in then close the slide and do the 1mm gap or leave it how it was cause my needles never need played with.

Ok guys have a question for ya. Just broke in my new Go 21.7port turbo. runs flawlessly. Now that I took the alluminum foil off, I'm wondering what temps are normal for that motor because this thing is spot on and with the body on after a full tank ran through im only getting to 190 deg F? That amazes me and was wondering if thats normal or not. Thanks again guys

Backyard they are awesome, dont get that thats too much money they are just trying to sell you the stock 1 I have never heard of a factory mod, and I drive for them. I could be wrong but I doubt it. PM me and I can get you to the US sourse. About my idle adjustment Q earlier I was only asking because I always ran the 8 and 7.5 with no need to adjust the idle screw, but going to the 6.5 I was just wondering never used such a small restricter. I was just picking my brain thanks.

Hi Adrian,well it is a bit of a mystery.When I stripped the motor down I found the rear bearing a little bit notchy but when I put the crank in again it spun freely
I`ll throw some bearings etc in and see what happens.
