First of all, you need a 5/8" wrench. Loosen the nut makes it richer. Tighten the nut to make it leaner. Lefty loosey or richer righty tighty or leaner -- Frank Clarici Toms River, NJ _______________

The way Bill asked, though, looking down from above the carbs, you'd go left to lean, right to richen. What fixed your truck, BTW? My POS is doing a similar thing. Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the

Nope, same answer, just looking at different sides of the jet nut. Right richer, looking down on the carbs. But as Frank says, loosen the jet nut to richen. Tighten to lean. "Loosening" lowers the j
