    ^Hope I am Correct.


    Boys, mine was set to nearly 1100 rpm after second service, but when I adjusted it to 1300-1400 rpm the rpm needle vibrates little up and down. what to do??

    • few technical things i wanted to ask so please help

      1. Is the air:fuel ratio adjusted by measuring the CO emmision values from the exhaust?

      2. If yes then can anyone tell me the correct CO settings for TVS apache 180?

        the air fuel ratio is not adjusted according to the CO settings, and even if it's adjusted then 2 out of 100 SC will be doin it....

        the air fuel ratio can be adjusted according to ur liking i.e if you want more 'zoonk' and crisper throttle response or if you're more inclined towards our 'INDIANS' fav word "AVERAGE"........

            so how can i increase the ratio in my apache 180 by tightening the screw or loosening the screw.

            also i suppose if i make the ratio rich then the idle rpm will also increase and i will have to reduce it with the idling screw
            am i right....

              The hole you see in the exhaust is nothing but an orifice for drainage of the water/moisture. It also acts as a sort of breather for the exhaust to regulate pressure!!

              thank you dude

                    just get the engine head sealing done well. Nominal oil leaks should be neglected. And throttle not being free try change the spark plug and switching to castrol power1.
                    There's lot to it other than saddle....

                      Mine tacho needle fluctuates too on idle
                      I don't think this is something to worry about....

                              ya they will be sealing it well since they r opening the engine head....i will check d spark plug....Will the warranty will be discontinued if i use castrol power1 since it is 15w40 vs tvs recommended tru4 20w40.


                              anyways...thanks....i will be in touch
