So - I have never done a carb kit on any motor before and am a little worried about it, but I've read here long enough to see that should really be done on my 40+ year old motor. I got a carb kit at the local NAPA, but it did not come with a float - so, I'm not sure if I'll end up treating the original one with epoxy and putting it back, but I'll find out. The motor starts and runs fine for about 45 minutes - then it seems to die and is very hard to restart. On this restart it runs like poo and required the choke out to keep running and then will stall out again in a couple minutes. This time pretty easy to restart and runs fine - don't need the choke out - so, there is something screwey in there so - I'll going to pull the thing apart and clean it and try to reassemble. Please give me tips - I read that the setting is 1 turn out for the high speed needle and 1.5 for the top low speed, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to do something wrong on this and am hoping somebody who's already made that mistake can hook me up and save me some hair pulling. I also already read through the Top Secret files.
