Adjust needle??

[Blue250X]

How do I adjust the needle on my carb. I need to get mine jetted better. The main jet is good, I need a different pilot and i need to adjust the needle I think. Also, how do I know if I have the right size needle in my carb? Is there a way to tell? Thanks

[bozz]

how do you know you have to adjust your needle it usually changes the "mid" range. main jet top end. pilot starting what is your guad doing' did you change anything' didnt give us much info?

You rarely have to change the taper of the needle unless you drastically changed the motor.

To adjust the needle position, you remove the plastic sideplate.
Remove the 3 brass screws and cap from the top of the carb. Remove the screw that connects the armature with the pivot rod. Slide out the pivot rod just enough to remove the armature. (be sure not to loose the nylon washer, and remember the side that it is on). Remove the armature and slide with the needle in it. Remove the 2 brass screws from the retainer inside of the slide. The needle should come out. Move the c-clip to the desired position..and reassemble in reverse order. There will also be a washer on the c-clip. That is used to 1/2 adjustments. Beliw the c-clip for a half adjustment., otherwise install it above the c-clip.

You can always download dynojets .pdf instructions on their website for some visual aids.

ok,so i dont have to adjust my needle? right now i have a 130 main and i am getting a tan color when i have it pinned and then check it. I dont know how to check my pilot jet to see if it is teh rght size. the mods are in my sig for my 250. when i sit on my friends 300ex, it seems like it gets up and goes better than mine, i can beat him in a drag, but when i get on his and gas it, it seems like it has more bottom, i dont know if this is my pilot or wat:( im going to try to change the number of dics in my pipe adn see how that goes, so, ill get back to you guys on that
