You're doing a fine job of trying to isolate the problem and learn at
the same time.
This carb is NOT the easiest to understand. *It is an amazing

Thanks. Designing carbs has to be one of the black arts. Trying to
understand them without all the documentation is a real challenge.

I'll just keep plugging along. Since I can start it and keep it
running at 1/2 choke until it warms up, then go to no choke, I'm good
for the short term.


One more thing I can think of is, if the plug is the right heat range
(correct plug number) and the gap is set properly.

As to carbs.. it's fun when they run and you still have ten parts left
in the kit box :-))

Again, my thanks to everyone here for their input. When I get this
fixed so I have full power and it starts with one pull as it did when
I bought it, I'll post whatever I found.
