[QUOTE="Newtosa, post: 454003, member: 23589"] Thanks gentlemen! What a great resource this is... much appreciated. . Points gaps were set to .020" and tight on the feeler. . Needle valve packings and choke blade are all good. I had low speed backed off 1-1/2 turns from light seat, but also had high speed backed off 1-1/2. Will set to 3/4 turn. . I'll remove the high speed needle valve and see if I can confirm flow into the bowl. Since the sediment bowl is full, if I don't see fuel shooting out the high speed valve, what would that mean? . I'll also check to make sure I installed the pickup tube gasket inside the carb (part 73), and while I have the carb apart I'll confirm the new float needle isn't still sticking. [/QUOTE]
