Bing Correction Chart
How to Use the Bing Main Jet Correction Chart
Step #1 - 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 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.

Bing
Carburetor Technical Information
Adjusting
the Bing Carburetor
The
Bing Carburetor (36mm) is a three stage system: Idle, Midrange, and Top
End System. From the moment the engine is started to approximately 1/4
throttle, the carburetor is running according to how the ldle System is
set up. As the idler jet number decreases, the mixture gets leaner; (see
part# 4), as the number increases, the mixture gets richer. For instance,
ldler Jet #45 has a leaner mixture than ldler Jet #50.
|
ldler
Jets
The
Air Regulating Screw (see part# 10) must be set as stated in the
Bing Jet Chart in order to insure smooth operation of the ldler
Jet. This screw adjusts the air/fuel mixture at idle speeds and
for smooth acceleration. Turning this screw in a clockwise
direction creates a richer mixture while turning it
counterclockwise creates a leaner mixture. To adjust this screw,
gently turn in a clockwise direction until the screw bottoms out,
then loosen the screw (in a counter-clockwise direction) the
number of turns as recommended in the Bing Jet Chart. For example,
the ROTAX 503A would be .5 (1/2 turn) out (effective range 1/2 to
2-1/2 turns out).
Use the carburetor piston Adjusting
Screw (see part# 11) to adjust the idle RPM. Turn this screw in a
counter-clockwise direction until the Carburetor Piston (see part#
3) is in the lowest position. Then carefully turn the screw
clockwise until it just engages the piston and then continue to
turn it clockwise for2 to 2-1/2 full turns. This determines the
idle RPM of the engine and should be set at 2,000 RPM.
The Midrange System affects the
carburetor for approximately 1/4 to 3/4 throttle. Once again, the
lower the number of the Needle Jet, the leaner the mixture. |
|
Needle
Jets, Jet Needles
(NOTE:
Jet needle must always be under plastic spring cup)
The Jet Needle (see part# 2) has three grooves which the Holding
Plate (see part# 3) can be snapped onto. The three grooves are
numbered 1. 2, and 3 with number 1 in the top position (note: some
jet needles have 4 grooves as in diagram #1 at right). When the
Holding Plate (see part# 3); is snapped onto the top position (#1)
of the jet needle, a leaner mixture is created than if it were
mounted in the #2 groove.
- lnstall
sieve sleeve by slightly squeezing it by pushing it all the
way up the mixing tube.
- Smaller
numbers indicate decreasing jet opening and leaner conditions.
- The
#54 marked on the side of the carb is just a casting mark.
- Float
guide pins should be polished to insure smooth float action.
- Floats
with aluminum guides should be replaced.
- lnspect
jet needle grooves for wear every 50 hours.
- Float
arm should start out parallel to the float chamber base.
- Fuel
pump must be in system to insure correct fuel level.
|
|
|
How
to Check the Float Level
- Start
and warm up engine.
- Run
the engine at 3/4 power for 2 minutes.
- Let
engine idle back and cool down for 1 minute.
- Shut
off engine and fuel system (if the fuel system is an overhead
system).
- Remove
float bowl.
- Remove
the floats from the float bowl while float bowl is sitting on
a level surface.
- The
fuel level should measure approximately 1/2" from the top
edge of the float bowl.
Fuel
level below 1/2" will cause a lean mixture.
Fuel level above 1/2" will cause a rich mixture. |
