Default RE: Carb adjustment for 05 Wideglide

Did you do exhaust and air cleaner mods also? I need to jet mine because it's running too lean - have slip-ons and a K&N air cleaner. I found this site which seems to give pretty good advice: http://www.harley-performance.com/. Can anyone else vouch for the advice on the Harley-Performance site, or have better info if it's not?

As for adjustment, you can drill out your idle mixture adjusting plug which will give you access to your idle mixture screw, but that only adjusts the mixture at idle, and I think a little above. If it's running rich all the time at all throttle positions, the idle mix screw isn't going to help much.

I put new drag pipes on it and they told me to put the screaming eagle air filter kit on it. I did that and when i put the air filter kit on it, it loads the carb up and fuel pours out of it. I will check the site you sent to me thankyou very much i appreciate it alot. Yes it runs rich all the time i may have to take it to the shop to get it looked at.
