tai3434 Posted October 21, 2008 Author Report Posted October 21, 2008 yo man. yea u just gotta take the carby off. and then in the carby u will see a screw. with that screw depending on if u tighten it or loosen. the more u tighten , the less petrol will be used, but the looser the more petrol. u gotta do trial and error to see how tight or loose u gotta have it to get maximum power. But yea, on the net said something about if it has to much petrol then it will just "bog" or sum shit. too little and the car will just clonk out. hope i helped. I'm not very good with explaining but yea. ooh yea, ive decided to put my car for sale. so I'm gonna advertise in the for sale section so if u guys interested then yea. Quote
