Well two days ago I realized I am a complete moron. I have been having issues with my updraft carburetor since day one. I've never been able to idle it down before. I've never been able to run it under 2200 RPM wuth out spitting a sputtering, and it use to stall a lot. I just realized that I had idle screw and the high RPMs fuel mixture screws mixed up. I had adjusted in the wrong way and that's why the carburetor has not done its job the whole entire time. I've got a whole lot of power, got a whole lot of speed, does not stall and I'm able to start in 4th gear. She rips.
