I was doing some maintenance on the 85 250r yesterday and i noticed that the air screw was turned all the way in. :wondering I thought that turning the air screw all the way in, or all the way out make an atv cut off? The bike was running fine with the screw turned all the way in.
Now, I know that if you can turn the air screw (all the way in/all the way out), and it does not stall, then you need to go up/down on your jets, right?
The funny thing is, the bike (according to the owner) is "original" and completely stock. Stock silencer, stock pipe, should be stock carb.
This is my first 2 stroke so i am still learning. Can 2 stroke air screws be turned to each extreme and not have the bike cut off?
Once i noticed that the air screw was turned all the way in, i screw it out two turns, like the manual says. I rode it for about 30 min and it seemed like it was getting hot. Which i suppose it would, i basically leaned the mixture by turning the screw out correct?
For the 85 250r
to richen the mixture turn the air screw in, correct?
to lean the mixture turn the air screw out, correct?
The manual says pretty much the same thing, but it talks about the 86 carb, not the 85. I just want to make sure.
I suppose the next step would be to turn the screw to 1 turn out. Ride it, and see how it feels.
