Wolfe,
I've heard this before....good running carb not so good mpg. The ones I've
worked on had at least a 7.5 power valve which brings the power circuit in too soon.
The jets were also a bit big. A 5.5 PV and 49 or 50 jets ( at sea level ) seem to
make things happier in the mpg area.
As Ken rightly cautioned once you take it apart the good relations between
you and Carpenter are real shakey.........this is understandable, a big outfit like
Carpenter can't accommodate certain situations as easily as little guys.
