Lo 206 needle height

[12jr champ]

Weve been running lo206 all summer in the heat with the slide clip 2 notches down from top...(yellow slide).. with the cooler weather should we drop the clip a notch and raise the needle?? Thanks

Possibly. If you have denser air, AND the engine was properly tuned prior to the air change, then yes, go one clip richer IF you have better air.

"Denser air" is not a given just because it's cooler. A possibility, but not a given.

You are correct.
Which is EXACTLY why I prefaced my statement with "Possibly..."
