1956 Triumph T110 Tiger Pre Unit - still running rich. • The effort continues regarding the bike running rich.. • Have now changed the main jet to the standard Amal 250. It was a 290. • The bike starts up just great with one kick from cold. The Amal Monoboloc 376/40 has the air screw set to factory specifications (i.e. 2.5 turns out) and the needle jet is a .106 • The tapered jet needle is actually set at the highest groove position #1, so it should be really lean. But as you can see, both pipes are smoking quite a lot despite turning the air screw out up 5 turns in an effort to weaken the mixture. I have a sneaky feeling that it is the filter element in the Volks air filter that may be suffocating the carburetter, so that's the next easy job. • I'll remove the filter altogether and then if that doesn't work will try a short velocity stack instead of the stock rubber filter hose and air-filter arrangement. • If that doesn't work, it starts to get a bit more complicated. Could possibly be the timing that is out, or the float is sitting too high and flooding the chamber a little. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.. • Cheers • Mike • Buy me a coffee? ☕ 😉 • If you found this video enjoyable and would like to support my channel, please consider donating here: www.paypal.me/themightygarage ...a huge thank YOU in advance 🙏 • 🔴 Please SUBSCRIBE to The Mighty Garage: • http://www.youtube.com/c/MiTyMotorcyc... • ✅ The Mighty Garage Playlists: • / @themightygarage • ✅ Follow on Instagram: / themightygarage • #TheMightyGarage • #TheMightyGarageT110
