The mixture screws should be on the throats between the bowls and the head. When you reinstalled them, did you synch them? That can produce similar issues. Kurt On Jun 1, 2017 15:11, "Richard Potter" wrote: > When you cleaned them you should have found a brass screw with

No tach cable on a 2002, it's all electronic. If your tach jumps about or acts erratically, it could be a dirty connection, but it is also possibly a failed capacitor in the circuit inside the housing. This can be fixed, but it's not a novice task. X2 on the carb cleaning. You can try an

Try lubricating the tach cable - also maybe some graphite powder in the bottom of the tach where the cable attaches. rough running and poor performance at less than WOT indicates that a carb cleaning is in your future X4 On Thursday, June 1, 2017 at 9:02:07 AM UTC-4, Michael wrote: > > Hello
