 Key Benefits

 Here are a few tips on running your Comer W60

Petrol Oil Mix

The following amendment needs to be made to Page 6 of the Kart Race Year Book, A1.4, replacing the sentence beginning engine lubricant:

Engine lubricant must be a synthetic oil meeting the requirements of the JASO FC standard to ensure that the engine exhaust emissions meet the standards set down by the MSA. 'JASO FC' is to be clearly marked on the lubricant container and is available from the majority of oil product manufacturers.

Set jets by turning in until lightly seated closed, then turn out the low jet 360o and the high jet to 260o. This setting will give reliable performance, use of a washer soldered on the high jet (must not measure more than 12mm OD) is recommended to enable the driver to control the mixture to give optimum performance. 

However in testing we found if the carb was leaned in less than 260o on the high jet  the performance fell off. Therefore the carb required little or no adjustment as the engine runs at a consistent temperature giving consistent lap times. 

Warning! Use of the washer on the high jet is recommended for experienced drivers only as adjusting the mixture incorrectly can cause seizure. Always pre filter fuel mix through a coffee or paint filter before filling up your tank.

The gearing of the W60 is very different to its predecessor (S60) we found whilst testing the gearing was 4 to 5 teeth less 

With immediate effect only the following spark plugs are permitted to be used for the W60 engine:  1. Bosch W2AS   2. Bosch W08AS

      Air Box

There  is an amendment to the regulations to allow a gauze or mesh to be attached to the external face of the air box trumpet. This must not alter the shape or size of the trumpet venturi. N modifications to the airbox or trumpet can be made for the purpose of attaching the gauze or mesh. the maximum thickness of the gauze or mesh permitted is 1mm.

Cold weather 250cc oil to 5lts of Super Plus Unleaded. Hot weather 280cc of oil.

Set jets by turning in until lightly seated close, then turn out the low jet 360o and the high jet to 260o. This setting will give reliable performance, use of a washer soldered on the high jet (must not measure more than 12mm OD) is recommended to enable the driver to control the mixture to give optimum performance. 

Full power is obtained from the Comer when the low jet is at 360o and the high jet is 220o to 230o. 

There is no hard fast set rule to this, consult your engine builder to advise on circuit sprocket to suit each particular engine and driver.
