Re: 1925 Elto carburetor

When you have nothing to go by your best
bet is to start in the middle. My experience
with poppet valve motors that when the poppet
valve is opening too much they seem to run
rich but leaning out the fuel mix doesn’t help.
When the valve isn’t opening enough the
motor won’t rev up. As it appears the adjuster
was eliminated on later motors that might
suggest that there isn’t enough adjustment
to make a noticeable difference. Those who
have actually run these may share their
experience.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
