  1. Very nice write up, appreciate all the data and links you’ve provided, I can tell a lot of time went into this

      1. Hi, ive a dude. What is the meaning of pto and mag center? Thanks. Ive a xlt 1200. I need know the high and low configurated. Thanks

        1. So it is which cylinder the carb corresponds to.
          PTO is the carb/cylinder closest to the pto (driveshaft that leads to jet pump)
          Center is the center one.
          MAG is closest to the “magneto”, which is the flywheel/stator that is closest to the front of the engine.
          They use different carb settings on each one due to some differences in how each one burns, could be one gets a little hotter due to the water routing, or the exhaust tuning favors scavenging into one cyl more than the others, I’m not sure of the specifics, but hopefully knowing which carb gets which settings helps!
