i just did the 440 kit on my 400 about a month ago now and i have it running good, the pilot is 42 and the main is a 170 the needle is on the second from the top position. fuel skrew at 2 1/2 out.
my issue is that i heard, and the manual suggests not to move it past the 4th up and i have it in the 5th, what is the reasoning for that and what would i have to do to make it run the same but put things in proper order?
i wouldnt think that i should drop my main any more on a 440 i ran a 170 dynojet main in it with stock bore and piston. it just seems funny to me that nothing changed much. i even think that for summer im gonna use a 40 pilot because it seems rich on hot days with a 42.
i figured a 440 would need alot more gas than the stock would.
am i just goofy or is everything ok. plug looks nice and with a 175 main it stumbled on top a little, but not with the 170.
