Re: brand new idle jet seperated
When you rebuild a carb, you should always flow test the jets. If you don't, you don't know what kind of a job you did! One thing to look out for, is that some jets have the calibrated tip pressed into the end of the tube. Sometimes this will split the tube creating a hair line crack in the tube. This crack will be below the level of gas in the bowl and leak. If you have a carb that doesn't drip but always has a gas smell in your garage, look for a split jet tube. The repair is just solder over the crack. Ed
