Re: 40.8mph!
Happy for you man! Be sure you up jet the carburetor if you don't run the stock (original honda) airbox. Reading the spark plug for correct color may help if you don't have a temperature gauge. Too lean, and it goes boom!89elitelx50 wrote:@birdman its a 89 elitelx, polini vari kit 6.6 rollers new cdi and maaan what a difference, the mid range power was nore than i imagened

Re: 40.8mph!
thanks for the advice, what jet size do you reccomend for stock carb witha pod filter?
Re: 40.8mph!
If the carburetor is original, you should have a #88 in there if I remember correctly. That's pretty healthy but the pod filter changes things. It is not allowing as much negative pressure as the stock filter, thereby giving a leaner mix. So a larger jet would compensate that. Might want to try to find some bigger jets for that particular carburetor first. I would just go back to the stock airbox if you have one but that's just me. If not, go online and do some reading, search "spark plug reading 101" or something like that . Then get some info to use before you start burning thru new spark plugs. Ask questions here on the forum, but do your own research, as you will learn more that way. Or, buy a temperature gauge and adjust according to that.89elitelx50 wrote:thanks for the advice, what jet size do you reccomend for stock carb witha pod filter?
