High Altitude carb jetting?

Academy Blaster · #1 (**permalink**) 06-20-2006

I've just moved from Alaska to Colorado Springs and my 2002 Blaster isn't setup for this altitude. The main jet is 230, the pilot jet is 34.5 and the neede jet is at second from the top (lean) notch. I adjusted the pilot jet to about 3 1/2 turns out and got good results but it just wont accelerate like it should and the top end is weak.

Has anybody jetted a Blaster for 7,000 ft ASL before?

start out with a main jet around 212 that will get you in the right area. Have you gone up to woodland park yet?

No, no one I work with seems to know where I can ride at. In Alaska, it was just kick start and take off but that doesn't go over very well at USAFA. Whats in Woodland Park?

woodland park has some great trail and it doesnt get too crowded go up hwy24 past the town of woodland park to divide the last light in the town is cr5 go right it stay to the right at the fork and keep going straight it will turn into 357 park and one of the camp sites and hop on a trail. Everything is labeled 717 so it can get a little confusing but you should be able to pick up a map of the area from the local stealer

I installed 210's and after tweaking the pilot jet some more I'm up and running. Thanks for the pointer to the 210 jets.
