    I do apologize to the actual forum for the drama. This entire post should be deleted as it won’t be helpful to anyone. The other party involved should be ashamed about talking down to people coming here needing a little guidance. There is a difference between knowledge and wisdom. I’ll stick...

    I’m not going to waste my time explaining my experience with classic motors. I just hope you have been diagnosed autistic to explain your attacking behavior. Glad you think you got it all figured out.

    I left the house but I can say for certain that there is no high speed needle valve in the bottom. Just a solid brass bolt and a washer. Not too certain if you can just delete the adjust valve, to me this would be a very rich wide open high speed jet?

    Ok also, I read in the original owners manual that it’s supposed to have a high speed adjust on the carb. I don’t have one. Just a hole to no where which no signs of anything being mounted there? My only thought is that it may be a older model rebuild from before my time? Pic for reference.

    The symptom I’m dealing with is mud butt fuel and oil in my test bucket. Things I’m sure of (tested) Float is not stuck, both cylinders have compression and are firing. The motor starts right up and runs pretty good. I just ran some sea foam through it as per how every video said to de...
