I Need Baseline Settings. Please Advise.

Hi.

I purchased a set of Mikuni Kogyo MIC's with the accelerator pump.
I pulled them apart to clean them.
I now need baseline settings for the item #33 (it has a spring & protrudes out the bottom of the bowl for adjusting) in the individual carb schematic, as well, baseline settings for the air/fuel mixture screw & the accelerator pump linkage.

Any input would be highly appreciated.

That depends on what motorcycle they are going on, whether it is stock or modified, and how the carbs are currently jetted.

sounds good plummen.
the air/fuel stating point i recently found and it matches what you've suggested.
that bit about the pump rod linkage sounds good as well.
i may call kaw factory for input about that adjustable item that protrudes through the bowl, adjustable bottom side.
i now believe its called the, "pilot screw".
texaskz, its an '80 ltd chassis, an '81 (maybe a "J") motor.
