Recommended Jetting for Bing Carburetors
The following is the factory recommended jet for Bing carburetors at sea level and 70F
degrees. Apply the Bing Main Jet Correction Chart shown at the bottom of the page to
compensate for temperature and altitude at your location. Jetting for engines equipped
with intake silencers are also listed.

Rotax Engines with Intake Silencer
-NOTE-
I personally do not recommend the use of the intake silencer
it reduces horsepower and is generally ineffective in noise reduction ! !

Bing Correction Chart
How to Use the Bing Main Jet Correction Chart
Step #1 - Assume Nothing!!! (ASSUME-makes an ASS out of U and
ME) -Disassemble and check your carburetor(s) to verify the recommended jetting
listed in the recommended Bing jetting chart is installed in your Carb(s). This is the
most up to date information available at the time of this publication.
Step #2 - Because air density varies with temperature and altitude changes, a main jet
correction may be necessary. This chart was calculated at sea level with an air
temperature of 60F or 15C.
Step #3 - Apply the multiplication factor shown to the main jet size recommended in the
chart at the top of the page.
Step #4 - Your operating conditions will vary by the change of seasons. If your EGT T
temps vary and your engine experiences performance difficulties, a review of your jetting
may be necessary. Return to step #2.
Step #5 - Humidity is also a variable in determining air density. A high humidity means
a lower air density of air to be consumed by combustion. Because we are generally not
equipped with a way of easily reading the % of humidity present, this can be read in to
this chart by adding altitude on high humidity days and subtracting altitude on in very
dry climates. An EGT gauge should illustrate changes in these conditions under lull
throttle readings.

Note:
Before operating the engine again at lower altitudes, reinstallation of the original
jetting is necessary or engine damage or failure may occur!
