hi i just got into 2 strokes recently and have a problem with plug fouling. i don't foul them too often but i get some spooge and have a dead spot about mid throttle. i have the factory jetting chart but my bike has a fmf fatty and power core two pipe. do i need to go a step richer or leaner to compensate for the pipe or does it not make a difference? :bang:
I put a Factory Fatty and shorty on my 125. I had to lean the pilot 3 sizes the needle 1 clip and the main was ok and I am riding in 40 degrees. You dont need to richen if your fouling plugs. You need to lean everything out. Go one size at a time till you get it right. FMF's jetting on their site is for stock bikes.
There jetting always seemed to work for me on my bikes. I couldn;t get the jetting correct on my 96 rm250 with fmf pipe, rad valve and carbon fiber reeds, once I put there recommendations in it stopped smoking and kicked my butt a few times. I was using 93 pump gas also so in my book there pretty on point, may need to adjust a little but its somewhere to start
It doesnt specifically say it's for their pipes. Also some of the pipes could require different jetting from others. Like it says they are starting points for jetting.
