IGNITION TIMING
Ignition timing is not adjustable on The Twin Cam 88B™
engine.
IDLE SPEED: CARBURETED ONLY
NOTE
The idle speed on fuel injected models can only be set using
a diagnostic tool such as DIGITAL TECHNICIAN (Part No.
HD-44750).
See Figure 4-2. Set engine slow idle speed of 950 RPM with
engine running at normal operating temperature and with
enrichener control knob pushed in fully. Turn carburetor idle
speed adjusting screw (5) clockwise to increase speed, or
counterclockwise to decrease speed.
NOTE
The C.V. carburetor has an enrichener circuit that will cause
the engine to idle at approximately 2000 RPM with the engine
at normal operating temperature and the enrichener knob
pulled fully out. The increase in idle speed is intended to alert
the rider that the engine is warmed up to normal operating
temperature and that the enrichener knob should be pushed
in all the way. Continuing to use the enrichener circuit when
the engine is at normal operating temperature will cause
fouled plugs.
Be sure the engine is warmed up to normal operating temper-
ature and the enrichener knob is pushed all the way in before
adjusting engine idle speed. Be aware that, because there
are variations in individual components, it is possible for a
properly warmed-up engine to idle at 2000 RPM with the
enrichener knob pulled out partially.
