Thunder Tiger GP .65 SE

Aug 02, 2004 3 Replies

I have a trainer with what I believe to be a .65 size Thunder Tiger engine up front. The markings on the engine are 65 on the right side and GP SE on the left, with the TT logo. I am attempting to get this engine running but am finding that only 1/4 turn is required on the needle to get to the proper mixture for running. This bothers me quite alot, since my other 9 models require anywhere from 1 to 1.5 turns on the needle.



Is this typical for these engines, or does this suggest something wrong with the needle taper or other carb component?



TIA, Jake McKernan


If the engine is running properly don't worry about the setting. Actual needle settings can very quite a bit from brand to brand and type.

Ain't it great what a Google serch for Thunder Tiger GP series will provide?
