I have previously seen a couple of threads regarding jetting for a gx160 but cant seem to find the answer im looking for.

We bought a t2 ufo engine recently and it really is a great engine. the only thing we struggle with is getting it to rev over 5800 on the fast straights at forest edge. I checked the engine last night and it has a 68 main jet fitted. is this to low????

we have tried changing the gearing but it just wont do it. is it possible once it gets to 5500-5700 the air fuel mixture goes out the window???

advice would be appreicated
