What do carburettor tuning services include?

Carburettor tuning is critical for any two-cycle or four-cycle vehicle. Careless adjustments can trigger carbon buildup, produce insufficient power, and cause more issues that may damage your car engine in the long run. If your carburettor isn’t properly tuned, your car engine will never live up to its full potential—which is why it’s best to leave it in the hands of a tuning expert!. After discussing your needs, a top-rated Tasker will go to your preferred location and make the following adjustments:

Locating the Carburettor

Before the actual engine tuning, the air filter and housing will be removed to access the carburettor easily. Once exposed, your Tasker will have to look for two of its integral screws: air/fuel mixture screws, which measure and allow fuel and air to enter your engine; and, idle mixture screws, which control the air/fuel mixture but at idle speed.

Engine Assessment

Your car must be running to assess the engine’s condition thoroughly. Over lean means that it’s using too much air but less fuel, while over rich means there’s too much fuel but not enough air.

Air/Fuel & Idle Mixture Screws Tuning

Depending on the condition of your engine, necessary adjustments to the carburettor will be made. The screws will be strengthened if lean; or, they will be loosened if over rich. The Tasker will have to rev up your car after every adjustment with increasing RPMs until the engine is running smoothly with no misfire or vibration. If all is well, the air filter and housing will be reinstalled back onto your carburettor.

Engine Check

You may join your asker to do a quick test drive to make sure that everything’s in place and adjusted accordingly.
