air correction screw setting

Post by ducatiman77 » Mon Jul 22, 2002 3:34 pm

I have a '99 KLR650 w/ a SuperTrapp ISD2 exhaust. I removed the plug that covers the air correction screw and hoped to get rid of the exhaust popping when decelerating (sp?). The screw has been impossible for me to reach without rotating the carb to one side. So, my adjustments have been guesses - rather than running adjustments. Has anyone come up with a good starting point that seems close to optimum or is the popping part of the deal? Jim in Ohio searching for a nice rumble

Thanks for the info, I never would have known. So you are telling me they can see everything? Why would they want to and what can they do with it? What about secure web sites? Can they get your credit card number when used to order online? What about online banking and stock transactions?

Put your energy into finding a suitable tool to adjust the screw. A good tool shop should be able to supply a small screwdriver with a right-angle bend on the tip. I have used one like this in the past, I think it was a Stahlwille brand. There are other, slightly more exotic solutions which I have indulged in as well. The fanciest one is a cable-driven screwdriver with a bend on the end which is designed for setting carbs. The result is the same. Doesn't someone make a small, short screwdriver with a thumbwheel instead of a conventional handle? Mister_T Melbourne Australia
