Re: throttle cam and cam follower relationship

[fisherman6]

Actually, the important thing is that the throttle cracks open when the follower is at the mark on the cam. The amount of slop in the linkage can vary quite a bit and the follower can contact the cam well before the throttle actually begins to open. Watch for movement to begin at the throttle arm on the carb. You want that to happen when the follower is at the mark. Does that make sense?

Your carb settings are good for a starting point. Bother will probably end up a little leaner when dialed in, but possibly not. I hope this helps.
