How to tune a Go-Ped carburetor
This is how to tune a goped,pocket bike, edger weed wacker or any other small engine two stroke. Tuning is a necessity for high preformance when using an hp carburetor.
*There are two little adjustible screws on the carb. Th High(H) and the Low(L) screws. They have springs on them and are mostly flat heads.*
Tuning:
1.Turn Both screws right until they bottom out.
2.Then turn them both back 1 1/4 turns. This will be your starting point for tuning. Note: Tuning all depends on what altitude your at or the moisture in your area.

3. From the 1 1/4 point, turn the screws to where you want them. Do not go below 1 full turn or above 2 full turns.
4. Turn the screws with the engine running on idle and have your friend take the throttle wide open. It shouldn’t bog out or over-rev.
NOTE: Big bore kits and engines above 2HP or 22.5cc should start out on 1 1/2 instead of the regular 1 1/4.
