    I am going to keep one and the other is for a friend. I really want to try them back to back on the 165 to see if there is much of a difference.

    Also got some testing in yesterday. Dropped the rod 1/2 turn (super EZ to do). While my bike seemed to run perfect before the plug read slightly rich. The leaning of the rod made it more snappy. I also richened the power jet (twist the external knob) and that to added top end. Seems perfecter now. :>) Carb still runs flawless from bottom to top. Buddy Ken with a KTM 350 tried it and really liked it. He said "wow, that carb is different, I see what you mean, fluid smooth power everywhere with zero glitchs"

    I am also notice a weird anomaly with these carbs. When you run ether the APT or Lectron in really wet and cold condition they look like a car with a blow head gasket. Steaming up the trail. It is really weird. Buddy Ken asked me if I had some Jame Bond avoidance system on it. My feeling is that in these conditions (near or at freezing and 100% moisture) the high atomization these carbs do cause this. It is odd. Does not affect how the bike runs just the odd steam like emissions.

    thanks

    Hi Guys
    Can anyone tell me what metering rod they are useing when fitting the Lectron to the 165s ?
    I have just won a 36mm unit on ebay, from the pics seems to be in great shape but I would of said its a fair few years old and from what ive read on here ect Lectron have done a lot of work on the later needles/rods

    Kelly would I have to get the part from Lectron or will you have parts as I would like to also get the adjustable fuel screw
    Cheers guys
