Not sure what carb you have but on most the air/fuel screw only adjusts mixture at idle speed, as soon as you open the throttle it goes through progression and onto the main jets. If you want to change mixture over the whole rev range you may need a rejet.

What he said!! especially if it's an uprated cam! It is soooo worth the money to have it set up properly on a rolling road.

 

Over fuelling can wash the bores of oil a bit too so it would be best done sooner rather than later. Whip round everyone!!!

[Guest cortinamad-gonetoo]

ok see what i can do

 

whip round would be good though
