Hi, this maybe a dumb question. I put another companies carb on my engine. So right now i have a GO engine with a Collari B7 carb. My question is, do i turn by the collari b7 base settings or the GO engine settings? Thanks. Tekno.

I think you would be best to tune be the B7 settings. All nitro engines are set rich when they are made. If you go by the B7 carb. settings, you will be setting you motor rich. But if you set the B7 to the GO Tech settings, then your B7 carb my run too rich or too lean. For example if you set your B7 carb to 3 turns out by GO Settings, it may run lean on the B7 carb. because it is designed differently....I'm not sure if anyhting I just said makes sense, but thats just the way I think lol! Hope this helps...
