      Remove the needle retainer from the slider. Push the needle up into and then out of the slider. Remove the locator clip on the needle with the pliers.

    • Replace the locator clip in a lower slot to raise the needle and make the mixture more rich, or in a higher slot to lower the needle and lean the mixture out.

      Reinstall the needle in the slider and replace the retainer clip. Guide the needle and slider back into the carburetor body, ensuring that the needle slides easily into the main fuel tube. Re-install and tighten the carburetor top cap bolts to factory specifications for your make and model of bike.

      Test-run the engine. Sneezing and popping back through the carburetor at high RPMs indicates a lean mixture and too low a setting on the needle. Excessive black smoke in the exhaust indicates a rich mixture and too high a needle setting. Repeat the steps to correct the needle position.
