[QUOTE="ossagp, post: 178158, member: 1650"] Your question about why it is running that rich to begin with is very appropriate. Jetting when stock, or in the neighborhood, isn't the culprit when you are at sea level. Obstructions from either intake if exhaust don't seem to be the problem. If your carburetor isn't leaking fuel when the engine is off, and the fuel is on, I don't think you missed a leaking needle or the sleeve the needle rides in. If you have the choke screwed down hard we eliminated that as a source. If you think that spring loaded tip on the float seems a little soft you may want to try setting it at 17 or 17.5. Fast and free way to lean it out across the board. [/QUOTE]
