Make sure that the shoulder on the needle is level with the bottom surface of the piston - if it is below the surface, you will always run too rich. Also, make sure that the jet is truly centered. Wi

Although that will fix the problem at idle, there is a good chance that the mixture will be too lean at cruise, leading to overheating, burnt valves, and in extreme cases the valve head will separate

They are only used for fuel overflow when fuel is overflowing. I don't think it's a design flaw, just what happens. A bit unnerving, to say the least. -Malcolm * There is a FAQ for this list! Its tem

They can call it "venting" if they wish, but if a float sticks or there is too much fuel pressure, they will "vent" raw fuel all over the place. That's why the old MG's had "vent" pipes extending do
