Okrasa's first firing.

[coolairX2]

After many years I finally fired up the Okrasa tonight for the first time. It starts easily and accelerates damn quick and sound mean to boot.

One thing though is I don't have the carbs dialed in. I have to keep nudging the accelerator pump to keep it running. I have tried anywhere from 1 to 3 turns on the idle air screw without making much of a difference. The throttle is very sensitive the smallest nudge will send the RPM's rocketing up. It does have a lightned flywheel but I still think it's a carb problem. Vacuum leak maybe or is my idle are screw still off base?

turn the fuel mixture screws in all the way then back them out 2 1/2 turns each, this should put you in a decent ball park for air/fuel mixture then balance the two sides out for the idle speed. Any new engine ive built for soem reason always revs like a ferrari, really quick up, but as the miles go on they tend to take on a more normal feel. hope this helps
