When you adjust the mixture on an SU, you do it simply by raising or lowering the jet. This does two things, it changes the needle relationship, and it changes the liquid fuel position in the jet. The engine is drawing a very small amount of liquid through that jet, so tiny changes in that circuit have great effects on the overall fuel mixture and how the engine runs. Moral of the story? Fuel float settings are critical. |
