I will try a few more things and then throw in the towel. It is foolishness to keep spending $25 a whack to try air bleeds or jets. I can only think of one other thing to try anyway - go up in the IAB size.

Idle was mostly set without touching curb idle screw. I went up about 1/4 turn. I am sure the transition slots are still good. The four idle mixture screws are out about 1.5 turns.

At any time, I will buy the carb back from you, how's that? Like Patrick said, I know it's frustrating not having any time to work on it.

Did you get a hold of Scott?
