82’ XJ750, air box removal

And the Pod's didn't bring it back, when I put them on I Jetted up from #125 to #130. First Ride I was Slightly Rich, so I Bumped the Pilot Screw's back just a hair and it was on the Money.

 

My exact setup is a cheepy set of Pod's called Moxi's, a Mac 4 into 1 with no modification to Baffling, and #130 Main Jet's. Personally
did not touch any of the other Jet's, but that doesn't exactly mean the haven't been by a P.O...

 

Oh, and if I had to Guess I'd say my Pilot Screw's were probably somewhere around 5 1/2 turns out from Closed..

 

Really?

So someone running without the original airbox and having carb problems is different to you having carb problems....

Crack on with your pods, fit decent k&n ones, but make sure your carbs are right before starting. Fit them without changes first, assess where you're rich/weak then change jets. My Mikunis ran spot on without filters, with pods and now are on the 600 airbox, still spot on as far as I can tell. Don't believe all the naysayers on here. Let us all know how you get on?

 

Agreed, but in my personal experience this is not a simple Project, your likely to encounter a pretty frustrating learning curve that your not likely to get over without a significant commitment. This is not a simple Jet Swap.
