Thanks for all of the input gentlemen! I hit this little bugger with both barrels. It was too late to save my carb body. It was cracked. Maybe not cracked enough to leak but darn sure not helping anything. Having the needle further from the prop should have been a no brainer. I resized and rerouted the fuel system. The only carb bodies I have have the pressure tap open. As it is now I have a brand new .049 #4 cylinder and piston, screened venturi, fine needle and a Texaco head with one shim. I switched to a 5.7X3 prop. I haven't flown it yet. What do you think? Is it ready to fly? Thanks again, Cliff
