Is anyone running a 50 slide in there RB20, this is presuming your using a dell vhsh 30. I run a 40 and noticed that AF,s site says 50 but when you call them they then say 40... :?

Anyway I presume the 50 would be a bit leaner. Need a new one so was wondering wether to try the 50

At the moment like a bag of bolts, hence new slide and slide housing. But prior to that went well, always had good plug colour so wondered if knocking it up to a 50 might give me a bit more without being to lean. I have found a 45 on a couple of karting sites so was going to go for that but chickened out and brought the 40........again.... :D

Atomiser and needle ok as they wear very quickly, don't be tempted to go to a 50 slide as this can lean it right off when you shut down from high revs and nip up!!
I should know... :roll:

Got in, slide arrived. Next door signed for it. They are now not in.... :roll:

Was hoping to get out tonight......hoh hum

Re the atomiser i think ill probably replace that as well. Needle seems a bit loose as well so that will also have to go.
