Also while I had it apart I pulled one of the slides out to look at it........ My fear is that I did something wrong.




Hi Bob,
When you put the needle back in the slide, the needle went in first right?
Sounds like either the needle head is on top of the little crows foot spacer and getting pulled out too far too soon, or, the diaphragm is not seated well under the slide cap.
I drilled my slides out and balanced my carbs once then wanted to test drive it. As soon as I rolled on the throttle, it died. I finally opened the slide caps and reached in with my roach clip (i mean hemostats) to pull the white plastic spacer and noticed the needle head on top of spacer. Immediately I said to myself, "Self, you dummy! the needles go in first". Now, if only one needle is on top of the white crow's foot spacer, this would allow flooding one side while the other side ran the motor.
That is what I'd check next.
