gas leaks
hey juohn and door the blades are not open too much. idle has been that way for years and all of a sudden something started dumping the gas. took the needle and seats out and they seem fine. last thing is what i suspect(power valve.) the metering block is literly welded to the carb housing. only way i think ik will get it apart is to soak the whole body in gas till everything loosens up. anything better than gas to soaK THE CENTER SECTION IN. ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE APPRECIATED thanks ART
