Default Adjusting pilot screw on bottom of mikuni carb

Hi all

1994 big bear 350....Removed and disassembled the mikuni btm carb to clean it out...reassembled...have a question reguarding the pilot screw setting (the one on the bottom of the carb)...does anybody have an idea what the factory setting is for this is? ie...how many turns do i back it out? also any helpful tips reguarding setting this screw properly would be helpful...thanks!

Mike

Set it a base setting of 2 turns out. Probably needs to be adjusted after the atv warms up. Use a small screw driver and turn it out or in until you get the best idle. Seems like most end up being about 2 1/2 turns,sometimes 3 turns out as the final adjustment.
