Im not sure if the AF screw will take care of the lean condition,,the AF is pretty much just a pilot jet adjustment,,the main jet controls the mid to top end of the range,,you can run it with the stock filter until you get a 115 jet,,I don't see any reason why not as long as its taking the fuel and not popping too much...
Once again,,nice job Captain!

Cool man, thanks jerseyboy . I'm just gonna pick up a pack of jets anyway now so I have something else to play around with. Probably just gonna grab that UNI while I'm at it too. This exhaust falling off has become a good thing for the tinkerer in me. just curious did you end up getting the uni? If so what size jet did you get to work? I just put on the same exhaust with a uni with a 115 but i didn't get a chance to tune it got dark out so I'll do it in the morning

Stripped the screws on my carb trying to rejet for the pod filter and wound up not installing. I just finished replacing my cylinder head (busted studs flush with the head) and had no patience or willingness to deal with it at the time. :-p

I use an impact driver with a phillips tip. Works great, even on screws with partially stripped heads. Or do you mean the threads? You busted the head bolts too?

Yea i had the same problem and i used an impact driver to get the screw out i bought a new carb too bc the side where the jets are wasn't made to come off to change them out and i didn't want to have to cut a grove to get them out

Well, the head bolts snapped off flush about a week or so ago and I decided screw it I'll get a new cylinder head. While I was changing out the cylinder head I figured I would rejet the carb but just wound up stripping the phillips head of the screws and decided it's a project for another day. Positive was that the cap on my A/F screw was super easy to get out so I could tweak it, so that was a plus I guess. Just tapped it with a flathead and it slid right out of its position so I could pull it out with some needle noses. I'll give the impact driver a try the next time I have time to play with my carb and see if that works. Thanks for the tip!

Finesse cappy finesse,,you have to be so gentle when torquing up on these motors,,just tighten the exhaust nuts till they bottom out then maybe a little snug more,,they snap so easy..everytime you change the oil just give them a quick snug to see if they are loose.I got the 8mm studs with my big port head and they are much better than the stock 6mm studs. You will feel the head bolts twist before they break,,they will start twisting about 18-20ft pounds,,if your talking about the head/jug studs that is. You gotta get that scoot back together,,we need more videos!! Those videos helped me get through the cold months man looking forward too more

Hahaha hey this time I didn't do it! It just happened to get jarred in such a way while riding that they snapped right off. ...of course, I also hadn't given them a good tightening in a while... ..BUT STILL!
