 +==== Accelerator Pump ====
  
-\\ 
  
 +  * **Accelerator pump rod length**: A number of Screaming Eagle carb kits (91731-85A),​ packaged during March of 1988 (3/88 date code), contained carburetors with accelerator pump rods that were too short. The incorrect pump rods were only 2.35" long, end to end, and completely disabled the accelerator pump and caused the engine to stumble upon fast acceleration. The correct length pump rod (27374-88) is 2.55". ((HD Service Bulletin #M-961 dated April 8, 1988))
 +  * Dealers were to check their parts stock and replace any pump rods that measured short and also check the pump rod length on any motorcycles that exhibited a stumble upon acceleration. ​

-  * When tuning, it's best to go by the Mikuni manual.Take your time, follow the Mikuni tuning guide carefully (including the throttle position tape) and you will get her close. If she is not as smooth at cruise, you may need to drop the needle back down and then switch it out for a different needle maybe. All needles are the same length and have the same taper, just different diameter of the straight portion. 96 is one richer than a 97. They only make a 95, 96, 97 and 98 needle. 165 main is probably close. But do the wide open throttle test in the manual to verify.
