Tickover..QUESTION
Posted: Tue Aug 29, 2017 9:42 pm
So after having the carbs on and off AGAIN AND AGAIN AGAIN AND AGAIN !!
It now ticks over at 1000 rpm, steady as a rock ! carbs balanced, 2.5 turns out on the mixture.
(ticks over smoother than my blackbird !! (injection))
She revs dead smooth , no lumps of farts! and the revs drop almost instantly so I'm happy (I think )
BUT....I have a question, the idle adjust is not even contacting the carb. Throttle cable is ever so slightly slightly slack, Is this ok ?
Also at 1000 rpm sounds slightly "clonky" but as soon as the revs rise, all is quiet.
thanks for any answers in advance
