Does anyone know the carb specs (needle clip position) for a 1983 YT175????

I can't find the specs to my friend's YT175K (1983 tri moto 175) anywhere.

I have 2 workshop manuals and they both only show the needle clip position (and air screw settings) for the 1982 YTM175J

And the jets sizes are different for the 1982 and the 1983, which means that the air screw settings and needle clip position are probably different as well.

Hmmm this seems to be a very hard question to find the answer to it seems.

I guess I'll just start off in the 3rd position down from the top of the needle, since this is what most carbs are set at by default it seems. And on top of that, the 1982 YT175 uses the 3rd clip position.

Pilot screw - 1 turn

Needle clip - 3rd groove.
