I have posted on here about my carburetor before and I'm still trying to figure it out. It is still running rough at idle and it is still puffing out black smoke when idling. When you turn the gas off or it runs out of gas, for about a good 20 to 30 seconds prior to it dying it starts purring and stops smoking and runs perfect. I checked the float level which is set at 3/8 inch, I have put a new float in it I have also put a new fuel nozzle in it new idle screws and load screws, also pulled out the baffle vents also installing two new vents also put in a new needle and seat assembly viton tip. I have the two aircraft drill bits and cleaned out all the recommended passages throughly with them amd also let the entire carb soak in berrymans carb cleaner for several days just to make sure !!!! Also all new gaskets all and all the above mentiomed parts from Roberts Carb Repair I have also checked for Mud Daubers nest in the air cleaner and habe ran it without the air cleaner still same results also put new points and condenser and changed out the spark plug wires and spark plugs!!!! So that being said, it is still running rough at idle and is still smoking at the exhaust amd every time I turn of the gas it purrs for for about 20-30 seconda before shutting off..I now officially have NO IDEA what to do?? .I just got in the mail the fuel level test tube to check the fuel level in the carburetor but after checking this I will officially be lost!!!! It almost seems like it isnrunning way to rich hence the reason it starts running smooth right before it does so Im pretty sure the problem is still in the carb, but am I missing anything???..... Please anyone I need help and advice...yearly tractor is show next weekend and I dont want it puffing smoke the entire time runnning.....thanks in advance.
