“I’ve been around 2 stroke dirt bikes for decades and this guide really helped me to understand carburetor jetting better and which specific jet to focus on, whether it be the pilot, or main jet. Your instructions are awesome. Thanks, Kelley!”
-John Irwin, Portage, Pennsylvania
“This is the best explanation of tuning a Carburetor I have found on the web. Nice thorough process and great explanation on what to do! Thank you!”

7 DEADLY Signs Your Jetting is OFF
Takes more than 3 kicks to start your bike (hot or cold)
Fouling spark plugs every 5 hours or less
Bogging under partial or wide open throttle
Spooge (black oil) running down the silencer after every ride
Throttle response is not smooth or the same every time you give it gas
You get less than 40 miles on a tank even when riding conservatively on a trail ride
Has much less torque and horsepower compared to other bikes with the same engine
It’s frustrating to have to kick your bike over 5+ times every time you want to start it, or change a spark plug every other ride – Why not spend 30-60 minutes to not deal with that again?
You’ve probably made 1 of these common mistakes…
Rebuilding or “Cleaning” the carb with carb cleaner and compressed air
Installing a new carburetor
Making more than 1 change at a time trying to fix what you “think” is the problem
Setting it to what the “factory” recommends
Can’t tell if it’s rich or lean, so you’re just guessing which way to go
Just dealing with the symptoms and not doing anything because you’re afraid of making it worse
Following a jetting chart or what other people are using but you’re still getting a frustrating symptom
If you’d rather change a spark plug every other ride because you don’t want to blow up your bike by accidentally going “too lean”, you probably didn’t realize that being “too rich” will build up carbon much quicker on the piston/cylinder ports and power-valve, which can make them stick or seize, causing a major engine failure!
Jetting Is Not “Black Magic” or Mysterious
I totally understand why you might think that – maybe you’re afraid to adjust it because you don’t know what you’re doing and want to make it worse or you’ve heard stories of people blowing up their engine after trying to tune a carburetor.
But it’s just like anything new to you – did you always know how to change the oil on your bike or car? At some point, you learned the steps of how to do it, and if you made a mistake, you could’ve ruined the engine.
But that’s hard to do if you’re following a proven path, taking one step and a time.
Can you “blow up” an engine by adjusting the jetting?
The truth is, you can ruin any engine if you go too extreme for too long on the jet tuning.
With that said, if you’re making one small adjustment at a time and only testing it for a minute or less, it’s hard to damage your engine.
It only takes a few seconds to “know” if you made the right change or not, so you’re not going to mess it up unless you’re making a big change that you know is wrong and riding like that for hours at a time.
