One tooth on the engine is worth right near 4 teeth on the axle. A 17/72 would have accomplished about the same thing. Not very practical.Is it possible to need a float adjustment based on gearing? I started with 17/66, black slide, C clip in top slot, floats at .860 and 1.05 +/- because that's they way I bought the kart.
It ran great in testing but we race gold slide.
Went to gold slide with 17/68 gearing no carb changes and did ok, we won, but it stumbled a bit and was a bit sluggish coming off of fast left handers and worse off slow left handers. Honestly we kind of lucked into the win.

Tried 16/68 today and the kart is awake with that gearing and really goes initially but won't make two laps without dying especially in slow right hander after a long run of full throttle.
It's obviously turning more revs than previously, are we pulling that much more fuel out of the bowl? Is that possible?
Thanks in advance for any input!
Hole is too small for my wire torch tip cleaner but I’ve got light passing through it now after blowing it out so it’s clear. I could not see through it before.
thanks guys.
Yes thanks again. We ran it yesterday after cleaning that jet and it still ran like crap. Intermittent stumbles and missing. Especially in slow right hander after long full throttle run. Also stumbles on throttle application after corner turn in...slow or fast corners. After we got home my son found a piece of electrical tape in the fuel tank near the outlet. Who knows how it got there??^ Good advice, right there.
