    To answer Pappy’s question – Low speed adjustment needle is turned out by 1and 1/2 turns. High speed by 1 turn.
    No, not a complete carburetor kit, just the following : main float bowl gasket, packing seals for both high and low speed needles, internal rubber seal for standpipe, intake manifold gasket. The carb was cleaned by ultrasonic cleaning and I traced all ports with a fine wire to make sure they weren’t plugged. Both high and low needle valves appear to be in good condition and the inlet needle valve is in good condition and seating well.
