Just playing with my carb settings at the moment on mu TS1/30PHBH/Franspeed Supertourer as the hand choke is not having the 4 stroking effect that it used to

I currently have an AV266 with x7 on the 2nd clip from the top. I also have an x2 and an x13 but I'm not sure which is richer. Information on the net is contradictory
Cheers
Colin

Full chart with sizes here Colin ...

Only difference on those 3 needles is the length of the taper to the tip.
X7 = 20mm
X13 = 22mm
X2 = 24mm
X7 being the leanest.

Yes it does help, also have 55 pilot and just upped the main from 135 to 138 open carb though. Think it could stand a 140 as the choke makes no difference at full throttle. Revs to 8.5k now though
