Re: Fe290 carb jet kit
Remove the carb, remove the bowl, unscrew the jet in the center, screw the new jet in.
What kit did you get? I know a few places sell them, if you got it from somewhere that’s worth the time to deal with (not BU) the seller should be able to help with install details. |

Re: Fe290 carb jet kit
It makes a difference if you’re running higher rpms. The stock carb leans out at higher rpms and if you’re trying to run bigger tires CPPs performance kit will make a difference.
I dunno what kit Wayne got, but CPP does a clutch kit (springs and clutch machining, and a jet kit for the carb) that’s tailor made to increase torque and help maintain better power band for running larger tires. |

Re: Fe290 carb jet kit
I have big tires, got the clutch machined, got the power springs installed in both clutches, severe duty belt, timing key, and 8:1 high speed gears. Am I wasting my time with the carb jet?

Re: Fe290 carb jet kit
Got the jet and high volume fuel pump installed. I got 1mph extra, waaaay smoother take off, and the engine seems to be running at a lower rpm even at the highest speed I got up to, which was 29.5mph.

Re: Fe290 carb jet kit
You'll probably notice more difference climbing hills. The clutch springs keep the engine in the power band longer. The jet gives a bit more fuel for better power while it's in that power range.
