Yes, I know what that jet is for but some of his testimony is a little confusing. He indicated his problem started in the garage. Prior to that it ran fine and then he changed the air filter and still no change. Just covering bases.

That's why I suggested he had a restricted air cleaner in spite of the fact he said he bought a new one.

The main jet in the carb is not going to go suddenly too rich. On the other hand, he MIGHT have a needle/seat in the carb leaking by but removing a brand new filter element is going to change anything there.
