    Default Smokey VK

    Got the engine warm today, i gave it a few revs. when i rev it a puff of black smoke spews out the exhaust and leaving black marks on the bumper. its a black carbed 202 motor. i just did an oil changed in it and made sure it wasn't over filled, so i can rule out that. would it have something to do with the fuel/air adjustments?

    cheers

    I cant remember so if you have the book double check, but im THINK the idle one you wind it out slowly until it stalls then wind it back in half a turn, but i cant remember its something like that lol.
