I'm having idle problems with my #3 carb. I get a random idle if I completely open the mixture screw. Everywhere else, no idle. Every other circuit is fine though. I can accelerate fine everywhere else...it's just steady cruise or small throttle below 4000 rpms. Before, I had the screw set to about 4.5 to 5 turns before the cylinder idle
I've replaced the sparkplug, checked ignition and it's firing perfectly, compression is about 180 psi. I did the shotgun and that didn't help at all. Float level is spot on.
I'm going to check the enrichening plunger, maybe it's stuck open. Other than that, going to break open float bowl and remove jet block. Could be plugged pilot fuel jet. Maybe a piece of gasket is blocking one of those holes.
Any other ideas or advice? :damn angry:
TIA,
