Thanks, I was able to tune the carburetor today. It's happy at what sounds like 1000-1100 rpm at idle with a half turn out on the idle mixture screw. I'm sure it can idle lower but for now she's running a hell of a lot better than she did before, she drives up and down the service road in front of our shop and it still sounds amazing with the open manifold. That's all the progress I made today.
