Hi List!

Is there anyone in the Portland, Oregon area who could be kind enough to
come over to my place to drink my beer and strike me about the head and
shoulders whilst pointing out just what the (&$@ is wrong with the stupid
air-fuel thingy hanging off the side of my engine?

No smooth idle.
Won't rev under load past about 3500.  Does 5000+ easy under no load.
Bucks, hesitates, surges, aaaaack!

I know that I have done "something" wrong, and it is NOT in the Haynes, nor
is it in my limited storehouse of carburetor knowledge.  I've tried the
obvious stuff like vacuum leaks, adjusting the mixture with the dashpot and
the other thing like chapter 15 shows...

Help?
