Solex jets and such

I installed my Solex. It is running a little lean, and I see it comes with an economy jetting installed. I would be looking for a 140 main jet and a 160 air correction jet. Does anyone know where to get these from? It also shows a 50 pump jet listed for the regular setting. A phone number would be great. Thanks!

 

Hesitation under acceleration, surge at low speed and idle screw at 2 1/4 turns. Just a little lazy.

 

Its up to temp, still a little lazy. This motor has a header and dual exhaust. That also leans up the mix. As I said, the carb is set up for the economy settings i.e. lean. I need to step up to the regular settings. I am in the u.p. of Michigan, and always run in cold weather. The richer mixture will be needed.

 

I found the documentation that came with my Solex, there is no contact information on the brochure. You might trying to contact a dealer but on the exploded view it only lists 1 part number for the main jet and the air correction jet.

 

You have a header and dual exhaust on an FHead? or did I miss something? You may have too much exhaust if it is an FHead.:hurrican:

 

Well, this combo ran pretty good with a worn out Carter, so I think it should run even better with a Solex assuming I can get the right jets. The header is a new addition, but the duals have been on for over 2 years with no problems. Pipe diamater and muffler selection was done carefully to ensure velocity would not be comprimised. I am well aware of the limitations of an F. Back to my original post. I need a contact for jets for a Solex.

 

Thank you. I had looked around and never could find anything. I appreciate your help. I will start a new thread when jetting is complete.
