HOW TO ADUST POSA STYLE CARBURETORS

I found this an interesting/quick read. I can't vouch for the validity of the method, but it makes sense and is interesting reading.

Hi Wes,
Thanks for the info, I found it fascinating. I'm not quite ready to fire up my Aerovee just yet. I'm loathe to start it until I have an EMS fitted to monitor oil pressure, temp etc etc. I have only flown on Sonex and they had to compromise by having it a bit too rich at idle which I found a bit irritating as well as a bit of a worry. I know that there was a lot of fiddling going on at the time trying to get the motor to run well over the entire rev range. This document has certainly provided some food for thought.
