Zama Carburetor Adjustment
I am kind of new to gassers, but have learned a bit about carb adjustments. My first gasser was a US 41 with a Walbro carb. I think it was easier to fine tune than the Zama. I have two engines with Zama carbs and have found the 1/8 turns are ok for getting close but then you must fine tune with 1/6 and 1/32 turns to get the best setting. Also you must adjust both high and low together. I am sure this is not news to many, but I just wanted to share what I have learned. I now have two planes with gas engines that are ready to fly. I hope to GET-ER-DONE soon.
