i don’t it is getting flooded in fact it is running extra lean as you turn in the HS needle . The procedure is to find the mid point between extra lean (to far right) and to much fuel if the needle is truned left to much …
mid point is where it needs to be with a small preferrence to the left
the fact you needed to rechoke points to extra lean hence the need to feed it more fuel. it certainly was not flooded as you suspect because all choking would do is increase the problem with more fuel. !
adjust the LS operation to thebest performance then do the HS section.. gently close the HS needle and then open it 3/4 turn
start engine increase speed and proceed as per above to find the sweet spot. A tad rich and NOT to LEAN
did you download your bible… ?????? see RD carb adjustment section !
