1988 Paso Runs - Jetting Questions
Posted: Sun Mar 21, 2021 5:59 pm
Well, to my utter surprise my new to me '88 Paso runs. Had to repair some rodent damage to the wiring. Installed new timing belts, confirmed valve clearance. Removed the Mikuni TM38 flat slides that came with it, removed float bowls expecting the usual grunge from years of sitting, but they were pristine. Previous owner must have drained them when he put it into long-term storage. Put them back on without further work. Cleaned the oil filter cartridge/screen, oil filter, fresh oil. Spun it over until I had oil pressure. Hooked up an auxiliary fuel supply, choke on, spun it over, it coughed and ran. Amazing. Fluttered a bit, but settled into an idle faster than I would have expected. More than a little satisfying.
Has anyone out there installed similar TM38 flat slides? Wondering what jetting you're running. I was so excited to find the carbs clean I forgot to remove jets and record what's in mine. I ask because at least at present it gives a bit of a cough upon throttle and seems disinclined to want to ramp up quickly. Idle is solid, fuel/air at 2.5 turns out on each carb. Thanks in advance for any insight.
