Just checking to see if there is any advice on this big bore 2 stroke carb bucking issue at deceleration? I've read up on the issue some and I understand that I should adjust pilot air screw up or down to see if I am running too lean or rich.
Ivan mentioned going up to a #35 pilot jet. I do not see that item # listed in my sources. Has anyone had success with this modification from standard #30. Does anyone have the #35 pilot jet item # so that I can do a search if needed?
Last but not least, does anyone else want to throw out an idea on this? Thank you LP

Re: T500 Carb Bucking issue
They are sized in 2.5 step increments, so you can go up to 32.5 first.

Re: T500 Carb Bucking issue
Once I fit a 35 will there be other adjustments, of a non traditional specification, that I will need to make with the pilot and throttle screws? Thank you gentlemen.

Re: T500 Carb Bucking issue
Mine was running a bit lean, when I turned in the screw a 1/4 the bucking ceased. Thanks for the advice. LM
