Frank! It’s good to see you back on the forums! I was asking last week about you, wanted to make sure you were OK. My first order of business tomorrow will be throwing another carb on and seeing what happens.
The nice part about it is swapping out the bowl from another carb is a cinch, no rebuilding or transplanting parts off of the original carb. I run all the motors with a fan blowing on them to avoid the exhaust inhalation issue.
I reached out on this one because I swapped out the cam follower and the cam from some parts motors (the original was pretty worn, both pieces), and I played around with the pickup and adjusted it to be both late and early, and basically saw no significant difference with the problem.
If there’s anything I’ve learned in the last year, is to stop repeating the same steps hoping for different results in the repair process. To your point and the other forum ‘tenders,’ experience is the best teacher. Thanks again for saving myself and so many others time by sharing your knowledge!
