by far the best moster 185 carb tuning video, thanks

Thank you for this. I particularly enjoy how you ASK rather than tell, while saying please, to Stefan each time. Such a small thing that really does improve 'work' conditions. Again, thanks for the vid, very easy to follow and concise enough for results.

6:30 another indication that your needle is too lean is once you start it, the RPMs from idle start to creep up by 100-300 RPM. You can hear the motor idle at 6:30 and then slowly creep up a bit, even before the throttle is touched. This is another great indicator that you've leaned out your low needle just a bit too much and you need to open it up just a minute or two. This is a great video on carb tuning!

This could be my problem, thanks.

Thanks for this. This is the first well-done guide for this process I have seen yet. Very helpful!

This is simply the best guide I can find on this topic on KZread. Thank you, this was very helpful to me.

Very well done. I tried this technique and my engine running even better. Thanks mate!

Great step by step tutorial 👍 Thank you

I have to say having my engine fine tuned by Stefan in Iceland was the best. Starts on second pull, no harsh knocking and smooth linear throttle. Takes a bit of practice but it’s a delight when done right. Plus you get that sweet feeling of security knowing that your engine won’t die down on you over that glacier or river. Thanks Miro and Stefan fir another great video. 🙏🏻

Certainly going through this procedure Miro.. excellent

A huge help, thanks!

Exactly the guide I needed; very well and clearly explained... thank you.

Nice video with up close adjustments

Very informative for me as newbie to understanding the settings of the sweet spot, Thanks for the effort chaps.

Thank you that was the last little bit of info I needed to get it running perfect.

Great video an explanation!

Great video! Thanks!!!

This video increases the value of my Scout... I haven't had to do any work on it yet but when I do these videos will be invaluable.

Thank you for a great video.

Thank you for taking the time to put this together. Looking forward to the trouble shooting videos ( midrange has always been a hard one for me to adjust). I like the fact that you show when its outside of normal performance and how it sounds and reacts. Perfect.

Thanks

Great vid lesson!!

I own a Parajet with a Moster 185 carburetor and have not done any adjustments since I purchased the motor from Parajet. It was running a bit rough and this video was all I needed to get my motor running perfectly once more. Great content, thanks so much sharing with the Paramotor community. Cheers...

Excellent tutorial! Wish I knew this when I was younger! Many Mikuni carbs come to mind... Lol

Thank you for this!

So thankful for this! I was turning 1 and 1/2 turns out. Lol.. Now I understand

Esse vídeo vai ajudar muito eu regular o carburador de meu Paramor, muito obrigado

Did you mention that the engine has to be hot before adjusting. If you try to adjust a cold engine it will run too rich when its hot. A perfectly tuned engine will bog a little down low when cold.

i have a new Moster 185 Parajet Maverick and was very grateful for this step-by-step tutorial. I have an issue regarding steady state at 6000 rpm where the engine gets to 5800 rpm and surges to 6800 rpm. Thank you so much for helping me better understand how to tune this motor

that sounds like a combination of rich low screw and lean high screw.

Great video, Very informative not only for Vitorazzi motors. Thank you!. Any guidance for the Walbro WG8?

Thanks need that

Please continue with these Videos. I hope Vittorazi pays you for that as their information are very weak!

Help! Very good vids thanks. So my question, I have atom 80. My seller put in a recall piece in carb and since then it runs horrible, it stops for no reason. I took it back to him, we retuned the carb like in your vid. Air/gas ratio. My issue is the idle, it turns so slow, 1600-1700 should be 1800-2000 rpm. All I need to do is adjust the idle pin, but it’s to its max, it won’t screw more. What can I do. Seems that recall piece messed up my atom 80. It worked so great before. Only one season, 25 hours. Thanks

great video!!!! Now the high needle and how to low consumption. Mine is waisting 7 liters per hour. L needle les than 1/4 and H needle few minutes closed. Engine 3hours old

the tab connected to the high jet . has fallen off.how do I double-check.is there a set setting? screw the jut in then how many turns out?? high jet needle.

Thank you so much, Miroslav for this fantastic video (and the others in this series)! It's a joy to tune my Moster 185 since I have watched it. I guess, it is a regular task to fine-tune the carburetor at changing (at this time: cooling) temperature. Is it true?

Thanks for video. Could you please tell where the helmet comming from?

What's the name of the visor used on that helmet?

I have a new 185 plus, I'm braking it in , but it dies at idle, what do I do? Thanks

Hello, can you tell me the optimal working temperature measured in the cylinder head?

Worth noting: if you find yourself in the need of readjusting the carb before every flight, check your popoff pressure - if it's too low, your carb will be super-sensitive to weather conditions

@sleepwrekt

How would we check pop off pressure?

you can show the spark plug color with your settings?

One thing you should add as a caption: don't use any significant force when closing the L screw all the way in, or otherwise you'll damage the carb seat and this will be irrepairable

Nice tuto, but is it also applicable for other carbarators ?

Interesting that you set your idle screw to be 2400, I was always under the impression that it needed to be at 1800, but I never liked the rough idle at that speed.

I have missing in my engine at 5000 rpm some time at 6000 rpm ?

Can you do exactly the same with your ATOM ? Thank you!!! Can you manage the HIGH needle please, because it is possible that in any time we will need to adjust it...

Why my moster my20 max rpm is 8000? After and before this configuration. Not ~8600. Its normal?

Hey Guys! Question.... It seems the fuel line is getting air bubbles in it post fuel bulb. Is this normal? It is a brand-new unit and I had them send out a new one however the problem still exists with the replacement. Another question... Should the engine sort of surge up around 5500-6000rpm? Almost like you've hit boost as if it were turbocharged? It's quite abrupt and makes me think something is up. Have followed the tuning procedure many times and cannot get this issue to go away. Thanks!

can I ask where you got your headset from, and does it include Bluetooth? I'd like to be able to answer calls and listen to music while flying.

Is it the same process for the Atom 80?

The new version of atom 80 has the same carburettor. Only 2018 version has a different one.

@@SCOUTaviation Thanks. I have the MY20 Atom 80 but the Maverick manual says different settings compared to the Moster (Low screw 22 minutes and High screw 60 minutes). I'm mainly asking can you use this method of leaning out until blipping is not responsive on any engine like an Atom 80 or Top 80? And do you prefer this method compared to checking the plug colour?

@SCOUTaviation

Жыл бұрын

@@turkeyphant yes you are correct. I thought you are referring to the low needle as it is the same for Moster and Atom. Moster manual says 15-20 minutes. Atom says 22. The procedure for tuning low needle would be the same for both engines but i do not have that much experience with Atom 80 low needle tuning. Simply because I never had the need to tune the Atom 80. It was always running perfect. The Moster I tune more often. The spark plug color should be checked after a minute or two of full power and that is mostly affected by high needle. Summary: I adjust the low needle by idling behaviour and I adjust the high needle by max RPM and spark plug color. There is a difference in high needle. Moster 69-75 minutes, Atom 60 minutes. Sealed.

Can yo please be more clear on the amount to open the idle neddle from scratch? You say that from a totaly closed position you counterclockwise 20 minutes. But I have read in the manual 1/4 and I thought that means one complette turn plus 1/4. So, can you please show us the exact amount to open feom scratch? I understand that 20minutes is almost the half of 1 complette turn. Is that the correct interpretation?

If I were to do this procedure, my Moster 185 would become impossible to start after 4-5 starts, after it becomes warm. What would cause it to be so difficult to start when warm?

This pro0cedure should be done on a warm engine. Your case is really unusual. Usually it is a lot easier to start an engine warm. I do not have an advice for you now. I wish I could try the engine myself

I’m pretty sure those aren’t minute marks. That’s just a 3/8” flat head socket that happens to have knurls in a manner similar to how minutes would be set up. The knurls are more for grip but it definitely helps visualization as it has to be close 👍
