Thanks for that.. a coincidence that I'm having off idle stumble? I'll post up Sunday evening after I go through things. As mentioned, I remedied and corrected many things (I hope!) at recent tear down but haven't had time to lite it off and get a hard copy report as of yet:) Will post up and will keep an eye on the tubes madmtnmotors!

You can adjust the tab on the carb linkage that pushes on the accel pump to come in early. This can eliminate stumble and give you better general throttle response.

But we were boys, and boys will be boys, and so they will. To us, everything was dangerous, but what of that? Had we not been made to live forever?

Thanks BobbyR for that. Everything above idle is excellent except for that bit of stumble. At any rate I’m sure I needed to go in the carbs again anyway so I’m glad I did but I will be adjusting that tab as well for sure! fb
