I am only at the following,

Elevation: 182m / 597feet
Barometric Pressure: 99KPa

With the Air Pilot screw on the default 2 turns out the #42 jet ran fine, I have mine at the moment set to 2 1/2 turns out and left it there to see how it goes over time.

#40 is the default jet and the factory sealed Air Pilot screw was set to a hair over one turn out. If you are a turn out or under you definitely need to think about rejetting your pilot. Being just over one turn out in the factory state it was on the edge of needing a new pilot (running lean) and was popping on deaccelration.

Now I just need to run it over a full set of seasons and monitor how it goes.
