Well guys, good news! It runs in the test thank!!
The carb had a bit of a tendency to flood, so I stripped it down after running (filter screen was missing and I think it got a bit of dirt in the float valve) cleaned it all out and made a filter screen for it.
Just a quick question on the mixture adjust needle screw. With the shroud off, it is seated with the lever at about a 10 o’clock position, and with the shroud on, it is limited to a range of motion from about 4 o’clock to 8 o’clock. Should I adjust the position of the lever so that it is seated (shut fully) when the lever is at the lean limit of the shroud slot?
