I will post an update in a week or so. I sure it must be "operator head space", but this was a simple exchange of one for the other carb; except the addition of the electric fuel pump and filter.
My next task is to adjust the transmission. I must admit that it started giving problems after using 10w-30 synthetic oil for three years.
Unless it was synthetic oil specifically designed for wet clutches, i.e motorcycles, it is doing one hell of a job making things slippery in the transmission that won't work when slippery
