Needs to be rejetted. Odds are you're way too rich.
Is $75.00 good for rejetteing my three wheeler ?
Is that for a dyno tune? If you just have a stock trike that will be overkill. You can get a smaller main and do it yourself for 5 bucks. What trike do you have? The factory has recommendations for jetting changes for higher altitudes.
For example in the owner's manual for my '84 125m, Honda suggests going from a 92 to an 88 main and turning the a/f screw in 1/2 turn from the factory preset when above 5000 feet.

I have a 1982 175 tri moto it is a carb that I got from a bike junk yard and changed the jets from the carb that came with it
75.00 is very high, you can do it yourself.
okay, here is basic jetting according to me.
every 3000 feet you go up in elevation, you will need to lean out 1 jet size.
every 9 degrees ambiant air temp hotter, you need to lean 1 jet size.
Keep this in mind in the dead of winter, that ole' third wooler will love the extra fuel you feed it.
it is always a good idea to have a notebook of jetting notes, a jet logbook if you will.

I went from a 165 jet to a 175jet if i turn the a/f in all the way how many turns out should I come?
So, you put a richer main in for high elevation? Please tell me you typed that wrong?!

You should go down on the main. For a good starting point with the a/f screw, try 2 turns out and work from there.

Ok so I should have gone down 2 in stead of up I will fix that on Monday I mestup
Took main jet down two sizes and I can't get it to ital at all witch one would get it to ital the silver or brass screws??
Did you also adjust the a/f screw? Start by turning it in about 1/2 turn from where it was in PA. You may have to go more.
