Re: Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

What 34's do you use ?

Seems so many fake carbs out there too, doesn't there ?

Re: Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

The Athena barrels are untouched

To be honest when the power did kick in at 7K I felt that was more than enough !

Just wanted to smooth the dips out on the way there if possible :smt017

Re: Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

I feel with this setup I am pretty far away from the jetting that has been on my YPVS engine LC that I have had the last decade

That runs 152 main jet , 42 pilot jet N68 needle , middle clip

I know the Athena is a slightly larger bore with no powervalves etc but it has completely thrown me

I was hoping that someone had already had a bit of experience with the Athena barrels and PWK 28 carbs and how they got them running OK and what's it like long term etc :smt041

Re: Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

Dropped the needles weaker again to 2nd clip and it has ran the best yet

Will cruise up and down to 6 grand now and will climb through into the powerband , but still nothing like a PV engine does

Keep saying it LOL but needs finishing off on the dyno

Re: Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

2 turns out on air screw There is a slight hesitancy just off the line Do you mean to go leaner on the needle to clip #2 Just won't rev clean into the power band , you need a runway !

Re: Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

Still testing the carb settings out and after I put 50 pilots in , I had some colour in the plugs , I then put the N68 needle on middle clip after it was on no. 4. The Middle position suited it much better and was no longer hitting a wall but still a long transition from low onto the pipe, but plugs...

Athena 392 Barrels And PWK 28 Carbs Jetting

What jetting have you got so I can get a rough idea where to start
