I'm at 6000'+ elevation and I'm using a 108 main jet, about to go 110, so I'd say definitely up that main jet...120 or 125. What pilot? I'd go 40 on the pilot just to be sure there's fuel, but you might need a 38. Put the needle back to middle and set the air mixture screw to 1.5 turns out. With the air mixture screw at 1.5 turns out, you have half a turn (roughly) of adjustment in either direction. Choke on?


Also, since it was running with the old wiring harness, I'd go through it checking continuity and if good, I'd go back to it...maybe put new waterproof connectors on it.

Rough Density Altitude adjustment for jets is 1 point per 1000ft. So if you are running a 110 at 6000ft and you came down to 1000ft, you would want to up to a 115.

Good call, Megadan. I read that at one point but my mind is like a sieve. Retention at all time low!

Cool, I'll try 115/40 and see how that does.

Yep, choke on. Going to try 115/40 and turn the screw to 1.5 out. Also installing the new AC CDI tomorrow so hopefully that combination does something for me.

I only changed out the harness because it wasn't starting with the old one.
