NT carb - basic and speed jet size

[Chaz]

I've done some research here and am still unsure about whether or not there is a different size jet for the stock basic nt carb compared to the nt speed carb. Has somebody measured? I don't have the tools to measure myself.

thanks,

Chaz

I found that they were the same, 70.

Thanks for the reply, MBR. I guess I'm going to have to get a pin vise and micro bits to dial this thing in.

I found biknut's dissertation on the speed carb. Up until now, I thought they were identical with the exception of the filter.

Thanks for posting that link, Agreen. I can see the throat is bigger on the speed carb if I look at them side by side. I was hoping the stock carb had a smaller jet.

I suppose I should just bust open my wallet and get my yz80 expansion chamber put on. If I do that, with any luck I might get away without having to change jets.
