I rebuilt the carb for the 3rd time tonight. Had some dirt in the bowl, so I put a fuel filter on it, along with the pet cock pre-filter in the tank. Runs great now, but the filter is a little two large and the hood traps it against the throttle body, which causes the throttle to stick. I have an extra sediment bowl lying around with new gaskets and screen, but didn't have time to put it on. Anyway, its purring like a kitten and running so much better. BTW: I had to leave it outside all night, which is supposed to be the first time it has spent the night under the stars since it was new in '72 ....according to the previous owner.
