[bajaguy1999]

i re jetted my carb and have a high flow uni air filter on it do i need to replace the pilot jet i have an adjustable carb so i can adjust the mixture at idle it runs good with the stock pilot jet but do i still need to replace it

If it runs fine...then don't touch it.
The reason we run a bigger idle jet is because there is a small lean spot when the carb transitions from the idle jet to the main jet.
If you do not have a stumble or hesitation when gunning it you are good to go...

That's not a mixture screw; it is a air bleed.

That is probably the simplest, easiest way to describe it. :thumbsup:

yeah I thought these carbs were adjustable too at first glance but all the adjusting you get is the idle speed.

Those are two different screws. Not all carbs have the air bleed screw. They make adjustable main jets but they are rather expensive for what they are.
