Strangeness ..... 120-130

Each carb has a nut for adjusting richness (by raising or lowering the jet), the nuts are under the carb body mounted with a spring around a black plastic tube-like thingy. Turning the nut right richens the mixture, left makes it leaner. "flats" refers to the facets of the nut. It's important to adjust each jet by the same number of "flats" ie partial turns, to keep the carbs balanced. Was just cross country skiing in Algonquin Park- -25 degrees!(turned down 3 flats!) Love this winter.
