2 barrel carb tuning
My 95 enticer is running reasonably well. Info in the machine on previous post. Ran it hard last weekend up Vail pass @11,000 ft+ Had 2 riders and one on a tow rope. Engine was not quite as snappy as i think it should. Carb settings were both mixture adjustment screws 1.5 turn out. Pulled plugs, cyl on the PTO side was nice- (grey) may be a touch on the hot side but not too bad. the other was quite dark and oily, likely running rich. What is the method of balancing the carbs? Do i just run it and keep checking the plugs or just go by feel? I really need some education here. I was under the impression that the adjusting screws were for idle only, and the A/F ratio at WOT was handled by main jets.
Compression test at 6000ft was 96 PSI . when corrected for elevation (96/0.8359)=115psi. seems a little low but even on both holes.
Thanks for the help, Dave
