    Can someone please tell me what position the pilot screws in the carby should be in case they have been changed from the factory settings.
    I know they have been set at the factory but that was years ago!...who knows what has happened since then, if you know what I mean.

    alleycat,
    if your talking about the mixture srews, they should be turned out 2.5 to 3 turns max to start with. only way to tell is run them down till the stop, make a mark ometal to mark starting point, then count you turns out.

    when you are turning them in you can count turns to se where they are currently set. be sure & write the numbers down by cylinder so you know where you are at.

    good luck
