Moneypit~ No, I don't think that Tom deliberately mislead me, but I didn't get a key piece of information about power until after I bought it.. Regardless, I don't hold anyone accountable other than myself. I guess I should've figured that one out.

Anyways, I checked the carburetor out last night and couldn't find any dirt, etc in there. I wrote down the jet sizes and they are as follows:

Pri Idle - 65 Sec Idle - 50
Pri Main - 137 Sec Main - 180
Pri Air - 190 Sec Air - 180

I also checked my plugs and after only about 40 miles, they are white tipped, so obviously I am running lean. Where do you buy jets for these things and what sizes are recommended for a baseline so I don't spend a small fortune on jets? Can I run a certain sized drill bit through some and same some money?
