CV Carb Adjustment

Does anyone know the correct direction to turn the enrichining screw on a CV carb. I have adjusted mine clockwise to lean it out but it still burns rich. I called my harley dealership and asked the service guy, he said he "thinks" clockwise is correct but I wanted to see if anyone knows for sure.

Thanks.

Righty tighty, lefty loosy. Just like any other valve turn it clockwise to close it and counter to open. Turning it in will lean it out and out will richen it up.

Can I ask what bike this is on? Please don't say 04-06 Sportster. There is a rash of us having this problem as of late.

The bike is a 99 fatboy. The carb has been jetted but I don't know what size jets were used. the slide is 5 grams lighter and a softer spring. other than that the bike is stock except for 2 into 1 exhaust and screaming eagle ignition module. The carb was built for a 103" and I bought it with the work already done.

So your running a carb built for a 103 on a Evo 80? That is meant for 20% more engine than you're running -there is your likely problem, you'll be messing with this awhile to get it acceptable.

What make CV carb is it? And are you certain it is a CV? Not that that even matters for the original question - just trying to establish a base of knowledge to help out.

As it turns out the jetting my be the main issue. I still have the stock carb, s I am putting it back on while I re-jet the other one. I didn't realize how bad it was until I went on a poker run yesterday and everyone that rode behind me said I was killingthem with the fumes. So I decided to change it back. rejet, and this winter I will install a sronger cam and do some head work.

Thanks to everyone for your help and wisdom with this issue.
