    Don't they call that stuff "duck tape" now-a-days?:rolleyes:

    HRK, passed a cage going 70 uphill - I guess the power is the same. Definitely no loss that I can tell. I'm hoping it will run a little richer on idle, might save me the trouble changing to a larger pilot jet. I'll see how it starts cold in the morning and see if it still coughs.

    Hope your feeling better today, Cowboy. I get migraines but they don't last that long.

    I still have an occasional cough in the carb, like it's not getting enough gas at low speed. Like I said before, Tattoo is getting me a 48 pilot to replace my 46.

    I might mention here that Ken recommended the 46 pilot & 185 main jets. But they are the standard kit for the 1340 Evo engine. Perhaps my ol' 1200 shovel might like the bigger pilot.

    It could just be chitty fuel, too. Everything we have around here is anything from 10% to the sky is the limit ethanol.
