Clutch out with my foot on the brake right? Silly question....I can drop the idle speed a bit, no intake leaks, but the exhaust manifold leaks a bit from pitting around the mating surfaces. I should have it machined. Why though, would I get enough fuel out the top of the carb(between the bottom of the air cleaner and the top of the carb) to soak the whole side of the carb? I don't pump the gas pedal but just the once to get the choke cam on the throttle shaft out of the way to pull the choke shut. When I was doing it that way, that is. Float too high? bending it down closes it sooner right? Thanks for your help, Josh
