David,
I've rebuilt two carbs with out a hitch. One of them had been sitting
with gas in it for 5 years so I soaked that one over night. I always
clear all the passages with pipe cleaners and sometimes find a powdery
residue.

I was out of town and my youngest son purged all the sent mail logs and I can not remember if I answered his question, nor do I have the original note. If I have failed to respond, please let me know so that I can set it straight.
