Tecate Jetting Help

[JMiller]

My '84 T3 is running rich. It has an aftermarket pipe, 34mm carb, UNI pod air filter. The jetting is 180 main and 30 pilot. Does this sound right. What size jets should I try next?

sounds to me like those jets are way too small. I have posted before that the stock jets are 230 and 45; are you sure you are running rich?? what are your symptoms? white smoke????(coolant) fouling plugs???(rich) sluggish off idle?(lean). I will double check my manual to be sure on the jetting but I think thats correct

The jets are small, but wasn't the stok carb size on an '84 T3 32mm? I have a 34mm. Does that mean I need smaller jets? I dont know. It is sluuggish until I open up the throttle and it cleas up. The motor is like new. My plug is black.

you are right the stock carb is a 32 but when you add more air you need more fuel. what kind of carb is it??? stock carb is a mikuni

Its a Mikuni. Its stock and is almost identical to the one on my '87. How can I tell for sure if its running rich? I have unburnt fuel coming out the exhaust. What should I do?
