Re: choke connecting rods
I found a stripped nut connecting the carb to intake . Free spinning on there not backing out .. that's what I get for having a guy tighten things for me yesterday .. it was letting allot of air in keeping my idle high . So I'll be trying to cut it off or something for a bit .. so y'all know why so long to get back ..... I'll be back after tune and say how it went but I'm thinking I found why it was doing like it was before . This pretty big leak here ..
