So, there is something wrong with this carb. I swapped out carbs with another known to be good 6hp carb and the motor ran totally fine.
I’m scratching my head here though. Before swapping out with a known good carb, I switched the bowl and high speed jet, and had the same issue. I have the rest of the carb set, to my knowledge, correctly. I’m trying to figure out what I’ve missed here. Float is set right, replaced the boss gasket (in the center), and again, it appears the high speed jet is OK.
Motor bogs down at anything much above idle because it’s getting way too much fuel. FLEETWIN – if you are going to the meet this saturday I’ll bring the carb with me and maybe you can make heads or tails out of this one. It has to be something obvious that I’m overlooking.
