Re: needle numbers

Thanks for replies it's a 7 with a dot under it . Had a scare today been on a long run and it started sounding like the skirt had come of the piston
lucky it was the recoil that had came lose and fouling the flywheel.oil coming out of exhaust so going to weaken mixture

needle numbers

Hi have a minus 40 I think. It is new to me . It didn't run so cleaned carb which is a villiers this got it running on full choke only there was a washer in the air intake to richen it up.I checked the needle to find a number 7 on it I was expecting a 3 or nothing at all .Mixing at 10 to 1 at moment ...
