Timing advance carb settings. Please help

[Dirtybird]

I put a timing advance on my 95 SXi and need the carb settings. Anyone know what they are? I lost the instructions :banghead: (This is just the R&D plate, not the MSD setup)

I am not sure why a timing advance needs a jetting change. :dunno:

 

[Dirtybird]

I dont think its necessarily a 'jetting' change, more or less a low/high speed setting on the carb change :dunno:

Again, why?

Again, why?

Why not? More timing will allow for a more complete burn, leading to a leaner and hotter combustion reaction. More fuel will bring the temperature levels back to acceptable levels.

As for tuning the ski, go by plug and cylinder wash readings. Every ski is different and I would not trust the settings in the instructions. If anything only use them a starting point.

Maybe....I don't know. :dunno:

I know that my motor's jetting is no different between Total Loss and stock electrics - and timing is entirely different.

Anyhow, my guess is that you may need to adjust the high speed screw a bit.
