Efi?

Anyone ever try to use one of those EFI kits you find from China. More specifically on a china clone.

No, not yet, but I do eventually plan on trying one. I personally don't mind carburetors, especially on a 1 cylinder engine. I think what holds most people back is the lack of reviews on their quality. A $30 carb and $10 in jets is a reliable tried and true that everybody can trust. $300 for a big bunch of unknowns is a whole different story.

You hit right on target! That's what I was looking for was to see if I can reduce the unknowns to less unknown. I want to try but I also don't want to complicate a reliable and simple system.

On that note : Ill probably try it by the end of the summer rolling into fall unless I upgrade to the ZS165FMM 250cc motor (try to)
