[QUOTE="MJernigan, post: 480761, member: 29987"] Pappy, thank you for the reply and extra items to check. The throttle roller isn’t touching the cam when it’s at idle position. I’ll remove the carb linkage in the morning and see if anything changes. I’ll also check the back of the fuel pump to see if any is getting through the diaphragm. When I checked it I removed the line from each carb and turned the motor over with the starter and it was pushing good amounts of fuel but I’ll do the check you recommend. The reason I set the sleeping w speed needles where I did is I’m an extreme novice tuning a carb so I was hoping the previous settings would be correct. [/QUOTE]
