Fuel System
Satisfactory engine performance is largely depend¬
ent upon correct fuel system adjustments. However,
adjustments cannot fully compensate for low engine
power due to wear, etc. If trouble develops, follow an
orderly procedure to determine the cause before
making any adjustment.
The carburetor idle and main mixture were set for
maximum efficiency at the factory and should nor¬
mally not be disturbed. If adjustments seem neces¬
sary, first be sure the ignition system is working
properly and governor sensitivity is properly adjusted.
Adjusting the carburetor is a means of obtaining the
correct fuel-to-air mixture for smooth, efficient
operation.

The carburetor has idle fuel and main fuel adjustment
screws (Figure 14). if engine runs unevenly at half or
full load due to faulty carburetion, the main fuel
adjustment needs adjusting.

ture settings given below should be used as a preli¬
minary adjustment. Turn the mixture screws in until
lightly seated, then turn out the specified number of
turns.
