Hi Royse,
Was hoping you'd make an appearance.

[color=darkblue:26bdb40d5a]I have ran into many that did not have an original bore deep enough for the rubber seal and the cup,
and even more that had a bushing installed that didn't allow it to fit.
On a few of those I have used the felt seal. I don't care for it.[/color:26bdb40d5a]
I see. Because of the way they have the rubber and felt in the same spot on the exploded view, They may be allowing for the variances you speak of. So I'll see how the rubber fits and yes, open lip side in.
[color=darkblue:26bdb40d5a]There should have been two felt seals, the other for the choke shaft.[/color:26bdb40d5a]
Not that I can see but I'll look again. Maybe that's what I get for getting the inexpensive kit.
[color=darkblue:26bdb40d5a]The choke shaft seal is really more of a dust seal.
Fits in the hole behind a smaller brass cup.[/color:26bdb40d5a]
Right thanks.
[color=darkblue:26bdb40d5a]On the air adjustment, remember that these work backwards.
In for a richer mixture, out for more air.
Knowing this isn't your first rodeo, it may be easy to forget that.[/color:26bdb40d5a]
that much I've always known.
Can you explain again the plug in the bottom center of the bowl? This one looks like someone put some sealant in the recess around the edge. (?) I'm inclined to leave it alone but wondering if i should scrape away whatever is stuck to it.
So far:
• A kind of poorly cut bowl gasket
• Flat washer missing on power needle
• Float level incorrect by half (1/8" excessive drop)
• Needle seat not tight enough
* Main nozzle not snug enough
• Broken choke return spring (typical I know) but I fixed it with the spring wire that was left. I know I don't really need it.
Thanks much!
Terry
