    Tubs, Thanks for the tip, that I hope to store in the memory bank
    for next time. I did have the LU off and do remember scraping
    a little carbon at the top of the LU, but not enough to hurt
    anything.
    Anyway, fast forward to this morning – I put some used J6C’s
    in it, and re-synced the mag to carb. Installed the silencer,
    but this time left the screen "out".
    Started first pull, tuned in the high and low speed, and
    it ran nice in all speed ranges. Put the cowls back on,
    and it’s all good to go, awaiting a boat ride…. hopefully
    in the near future. I left the 56 carb on it.
    When I get to it’s Lightwin, I’ll see what happens
    with it running my 54 carb.
    I like getting things running nice, but it takes the
    fun out of it when you’re not sure what was really wrong! 😯

    Prepare to be boarded!
