Default Hurricane

Quick question???? When I run my hurricane it almost sounds like it has a kackle to it. Kind of like it might possibly be sucking some air. When it sits and idles for a few seconds, the motor actually drops a little rpm and idols slower. I'm not sure really where to look first. I've adjusted the carb settings quite a few times and just can't figure it out. It just sounds to me like it is getting some air, but I can't figure out where at.

Damn Ehoof... Your dead on! I found the "sweet spot" the other day. I just checked and I'm 2 1/4 on the high and 3 on the low. Temps were still a tad low, but it was kinda chilly out.
