A Tale of Two Problems...

Hello there!

Issue: In neutral and in Reverse I get normal rev and oil pressure, just not in forward gear.

New Plugs
New Ignition Coil
Compression Test after about 10min running (95 - 96 - 95 - 100)
New Racor Fuel Filter
Oil Change
New Carb (installing now)
Checked Exhaust Aft from Engine

The Throttle Lever on the new Carb is oriented differently than the one the old carb. With my cable configuration (Coming to engine from aft - no u-turn) The cables are not oriented to push throttle open and pull closed.

The old carb has a Throttle Arm which was oriented differently supporting the normal functioning of my throttle cable.

Questions:

1.) Any other things you would look at regarding the power issue in Forward Gear?
2.) Can I use the old throttle arm from original and new plate and screws? (it seems to fit the same and solves the issue)
3.) Is there a way to invert the throttle arm which came with the new Zenith. I can't find a way to flip it.
