Instead of the k&n filter that fit in the stock air box, I went with a clamp on style k&n filter with outerwear. Now, I don't remember what number jetting I had in(should of wrote it down when I had it out) but, it was what k&n recommended for that filter. The needle is in the #3 position. I thought, all I would need to do with the new filter[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] would be to adjust the idle screw[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]Boy, was I WRONG[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] The thing is idling fast/high. Couldn't get it to idle down with the idle screw.
Would lowering the needle to say the #2 or 1 position, make a difference?
I am going to continue looking for my k&n jet kit (can't find it when I need it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]) and also do some research here[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Hard to believe that a simple filter change would be that big of a deal. Was the stock air box that restrictive? You have created a lean condition if anything with the new filter. I would try turning in the air screw on the side of the carb a bit and see what happens. If it is a fuel screw turn it out. The needle would have to be raised to counter the lean condition, not lowered. Not sure if you were lowering the needle or the clip(lowereing the clip would raise the needle.) Any chanceyou now have a air leak? Would cause the same conditions.

I know[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] If you were to see the stock air box system, you would die lauging[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] it is that restrictive[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] IMO. I don't think I have a air leak. Didn't hear or feel one. I'll try the fuel mixture screw. What I do know is, it has a Dyna jet main #134 jet in it and the needle clip is in the #3 position. I'll be back[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Any possible kinks in the throttle cable? Having a real hard time with the fact that the idle screw makes no difference. But if the stock airbox was that restrictve it could now be super lean.
