Why It Matters
A hair lean at full throttle shows up as chalk-white plugs and a top end that never quite arrives. One step richer than the 140, the 145 closes that lean spot on a Kadron or Solex without overshooting to a 150.
Installation Notes
- Threaded brass jet that swaps with a flat screwdriver.
