    Very nice!
    I note you have the posh carb adjusting doodat that most do not. :thumbsup:
    The green arrow screw adjusts the throttle plate opening at idle for idle speed and idle balance
    Then you set the running (off idle) balance roughly with the drop down arms and lock them off. Fine adjusting those is super annoying because the setting changes when you tighten the lock nuts. So you have...
    The red arrow screw to fine adjust off idle balance. I had to make those parts for mine.
