I know this has probably been posted many times, but I need help! New to me, 44 B. Believe it was neglected in its previous life, Alot of water in both crankcase and transmission, plus a lot of signs it's been sitting outside a while.
Have replaced all fluids and filter. Had carburetor rebuilt by a reputable carb person, here's my problem.
After putting car back on i cannot get it to Idle smoothly. things I have tried since putting carb back on. I have adjusted linkage to 1/2 hole short at wide open throttle, Timed magneto to InPulse at perfectly 3 o'clock with flywheel, (seems to have made it start harder), was about a 1/2 below 3 o'clock originally. Have since removed air intake elbow to eliminate that, cleaned and re gapped plugs, good spark on both.
Tests that I have done are opening and closing idle needle, No change. Closing load needle at 1/2 throttle, Stalled. This leads me to believe that idle circuit is plugged.
Is this a good assumption?
One other thing. With air intake off I've noticed it will pop back thru carb every 5 seconds or so and also pop out exhaust too. This is happening with the choke partially closed to help even out idle. Thanks
