Ok thanks.. your so much help! I went to take off the bottom valve cover and wouldn't ya knoe.. I stripped one of the allen bolts rrrrr.. I tried using dremel and making it into a flat head... but that cheap arse alluminum on this pos wouldn't hold... should I judt cut the head of bolt off? It looks like the cover is not threaded and part of the bolt threads will stick out enough to grab.

Use Just pliers to grab the head and turn it that way.

I would think Locking Vice Grips would do the trick used them many times when the heads of screws are stripped. But if you cannot budge and you cut the head off to get the cover off you still will need to get the screw out. Alleyoop  |

Great!! Now take your time and adjust them right, and take one of the bolts to the hardware store and get a new one as a matter of fact get two new ones so they match.

See that the carb diaphragm is not torn or leaking. Also that there are not leaks in the vacuum side of carb.

Y would it perform well on the stand and not perform well on the ground.. I would think if it was a carb issue both ways would struggle
