There is nothing really to adjust on this carb, certainly nothing to make any difference on a DYNO, especially those with the fixed idle jet. You might find some difference between carbs on a DYNO, especially the later ones seem to be getting better and better. You can choose a main jet to suit the conditions, but this is well understood. The idle jet does nothing but make the engine tickover better, adjust as Honda recommend and forget.

I use an ultrasonic cleaner, brings the carbs up like new. But I only replace gaskets and o rings as required.
