I did a complete rebuild a 2100 carb because it was badly leaking and very dirty. Now it’s all back together but the engine seems to be running rich and when the choke opens the engine starts to race. I can keep it idling if I hold the choke closed While I try to tinker with it.
- I’ve tried adjusting the mixing screws. But at higher RPM it has no effect
- I’ve pulled the idle adjustment back to 0.
- I don’t think it’s the float (could that cause this type of issue?)
- the jets are 49
I just can’t figure what is causing it to race. It will roll up to about 2500 RPM.
Any help would be appreciated.
