1. Introducció i presentació del producteview
The 6 Sigma Carburetor Jet Kit is designed to optimize the performance and longevity of your Suzuki VL250LC Intruder. Factory carburetors are often configured to meet import regulations rather than peak performance, leading to a lean fuel condition, especially after modifications to the exhaust or intake system. Running lean can cause engine damage due to excessive heat and detonation.
This comprehensive jet kit addresses all throttle positions and improves throttle response by enriching the fuel mixture across all carburetor circuits. It is custom-made to your specific bike and its modifications, ensuring optimal results.

Beneficis clau:
- Increased Performance: Designed to improve all RPM ranges of performance and throttle response, potentially gaining 6%-8% in horsepower with intake/exhaust modifications, or 2-3% on a bone stock setup.
- Longer Engine Life: Allows the engine to run cooler, which increases the lifespan of engine components by preventing damage from lean conditions.
- Stops Lean Exhaust Popping: Corrects the lean condition that causes exhaust popping and can lead to engine damage.
- Lower EGT's: Reduces exhaust gas temperatures, protecting exhaust valves and preventing engine destruction.

3. Configuració i instal·lació
Before installation, it is crucial to provide your specific vehicle details to ensure you receive a custom-designed kit for optimal performance. Please EMAIL US FIRST through Amazon with your exact year, model, any modifications made to your bike (e.g., aftermarket exhaust, intake), and your elevation. This information allows us to design, build, and ship the correct kit tailored for your motorcycle.
Installation of the jet kit is designed to be straightforward, requiring only basic hand tools. The kit includes comprehensive, step-by-step instructions with photos, specifically customized for your bike model. A complete carburetor schematic is also provided to assist with the process.
Key Installation Steps (Refer to included manual for detailed instructions):
- Disassemble the carburetor(s) according to the provided schematic.
- Install the new Main Jets and Pilot Jet (if included).
- Perform Needle Adjustments using the provided components.
- Execute the Slide Hole Modification, Idle Mixture Modification, and Slide Spring Modification (for CV carbs) using the supplied drill bits and instructions.
- Reassemble the carburetor(s) carefully.
- Consider building and using the Carburetor Synchronizer Tool for optimal tuning after installation.
4. Consideracions operatives
After proper installation of the 6 Sigma Jet Kit, your motorcycle will experience significant improvements in performance and engine health. The enriched fuel mixture ensures that your engine runs optimally, especially if you have modified your intake or exhaust systems.
Post-Installation Performance:
- Expect increased horsepower and torque across all RPM ranges.
- Noticeably faster and more responsive throttle action.
- Elimination of exhaust popping, which is a common indicator of a lean condition.
- Reduced engine operating temperatures and exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), contributing to engine longevity.
5. Manteniment
Regular maintenance of your carburetor system is essential to ensure continued peak performance and engine health. The 6 Sigma Jet Kit helps your engine run cooler, which inherently contributes to longer engine component life. However, proper carburetor hygiene remains critical.
Manteniment recomanat:
- Follow the "Carburetor Cleaning Procedure" included in your kit to prevent fuel deposits and blockages.
- Periodically inspect fuel lines and filters for any signs of wear or contamination.
- Ensure proper air filter maintenance to allow optimal airflow to the carburetor.
- If your motorcycle is stored for extended periods, consider using a fuel stabilizer to prevent fuel degradation and gumming in the carburetor.
6. Solució De Problemes
While the 6 Sigma Jet Kit is designed for optimal performance, understanding common issues can help in diagnosing and resolving potential problems. Most issues after installation relate to improper tuning or pre-existing conditions.
Common Symptoms and Solutions:
| Símptoma | Causa possible | Solució |
|---|---|---|
| Exhaust Popping: Especially on deceleration. | Engine running extremely lean. | Verify jet kit installation. Ensure all modifications (e.g., idle mixture) were performed correctly. Re-check for vacuum leaks. |
| Reduced performance or rough running after intake/exhaust modification. | Engine running lean due to increased airflow without adequate fuel. | This jet kit is specifically designed to correct this. Ensure the kit was installed correctly and that you provided accurate bike modification details when ordering. |
| Engine overheating or high EGTs. | Lean fuel mixture causing excessive heat. | Confirm proper jetting and needle settings. Ensure carburetor is clean and all passages are clear. |
| Difficulty with throttle response. | Incorrect needle adjustment or slide modification. | Review the "Proper Tuning Techniques" and "Slide Hole Mod" instructions. |
If you encounter persistent issues, refer to the "Proper Tuning Techniques" section in your included manual. For further assistance, please contact 6 Sigma support.
