Scooterotica

Oh yeah, I'm now running the pull choke, too (no difference really).

And I've read the Sudco manual (again) and absorbed as much as I my brain will allow...

have you tried changing the atomiser, I refer you to my honourable gentleman Mr Corrado......

"You can get different atomisers for the TM24, they come fitted with Q0 ...... P8 is next leanest, Q2 next richest. I'm told that if you change then go at least 4 numbers to make much of a difference, eg if you want to go leaner go P6 then P2

id use a richer slide

Yep, will look into both slide and jet options. Not sure if slides are available.

Atomisers are expensive, and a lot of dickin' round to file a slide...

Anyways, a little rich at 1/4 is a good thing, rolling off from WOT, you don't want a nip up..

James has a 4H16 and 5K1 needles, he offered to lend them to me when I was setting up my carb, give him a bell maybe he'll offer them to you as well. If one of the needles proves to work well then source a genuine or the keystar equivilent.

Here is a basic list that james has compiled..

The figures in parentheses indicate the diameter at the farthest measurable
point on the needle, but not quite at the 50mm mark.
