Status: online 		Not being fond of the rear carb setup on the LA 10 an ASP `12 carb was installed just had to take a little off the body so it would slip in drilled and tapped for retaining screw also for a tight in cowl installation the thumb screw was replaced with an allen one so I could insert a allen wrench

the title should read rear to front carb typo) It does now

Status: online 		Hobbsy my rear needle was very tight and hard to adjust, on the glow site there was a post the the rear needle set up was prone to bubbles to the front throttle maybe fiction
I like the fuel direct to the front no second line martin

Status: online 		A word on caution on this modification all Davis heads allen or thumb have a fail/safe feature ( length) to prevent lowering the contra too far even when screwed all the waydown
the length on mine was cut with a washer under the allen and spring I made sure this did not exceed the orginal Davis one when all the way in ,I also finished the end of the allen so it was nice and smooth with a nice convex shape martin
Other diesel heads do not have this important feature If you notice mine has a flat on on screw that holds the washer and the spring is under not a regular allen
