GFR carb 10 years 3 months ago #3463

Never heard of anyone running a bigger carb. 30BHP not enough ? "Do not adjust your mind, there is a fault in the reality" 1957 175 Sport

yoy may have enough troubble with the original carb.
You may not want smething else which may cause even more troubble

Take care. In the parts list (or is it in the manual?) is a wrong slider listed.
Mine did not run very well with the setting from the manuals.
It starts perfect without choke. Even in winter (i wish my Nordie would start like this). And it seems to run very rich because of the big amount of 'white smoke' comming out of the exhaust
