Re: Oko carb tuning help
Up the pilot jet to get it to idle. Basically you want you get the size of pilot jet that you can get the idle air screw about 1.5 to two turns out that way you have some tunability with it. If the pilot jet isn't right the transition from bottom to mid range throttle will suffer.

Re: Oko carb tuning help

Re: Oko carb tuning help
Greetings:
PTSG gave you the correct remedy in the second post. ANY fiddling with screw a clips and mains is pointless if the Pilot is wrong for this setup. You can't latch on to another engine as Truth for what's Right for the Iron. Different carb, manifold, but also port timing and exhaust will and does result in some weird jetting needs. In this case it appears your 21 OK needs a bigger Pilot than your 24. Put it in and see.
