What jetting. Pro Circuit
- Thread starter Nickmazz
- Start date
we told you already. 290 or 300. there is no guessing at the perfect jet size. every quad is a little different. if you still have the lid on your airbox 270-280
Jetting is arrived at by selecting a jet which you think may be a little too big and then performing a plug chop.
Put in #300 and do the following.
Make sure the carb is not flooding, the float setting must be correct.
Adjust the idle,,,,,,
Idle adjusting.
Start with air screw 1.5 turns out.
Set idle screw so that it has some sort of idle. With TORS big screw under seat on top of unit. No TORS brass screw midway down carb body.
Warm up motor and then set idle screw for a fast idle.
Adjust air screw either way to get the fastest idle.
Adjust air screw a little at a time leaving 10 secs to allow the motor to respond.
Re adjust idle screw for desired idle .
and then,
Plug chop.
Warm up motor to operating temp.
Fit new B8ES plug, ride through the gears and hold WOT in 5th or 6th gear for 10 seconds, or as long as you can safely.
Switch off the motor and pull in the clutch, roll to a stop.
Take the plug out and replace the old one for the ride home.
Carefully cut the threaded end off the plug to expose the insulator.
There should be a smoke ring of a cardboard or biscuit colour around the insulator.
If it is non existant or a very light colour, you are lean and require a larger main jet.
If it is a lot darker you are rich and may go down a size in main.
I prefer to run a little on the darker side, I may loose a little power but it is worth it for the peace of mind that I won't need a rebuild so soon.

This is a good to go plug.
This one is a little rich, but I would run it, I like to be on the safe side.
