Drbrown and Drolston - thank you both for giving me a rundown of additional things to check. The fuel pump and flex line are brand new, but will run those checks anyways (will also proof the metal line going into the tank which is original). Will also try the mixture procedure Drolston described. Carb is a Mac's rebuild - probably wouldn't hurt removing the needles and checking the tips.

Bob C. thank you for finding the exact Service Bulletin references. I didn't question the 3/4s off full seat because that is roughly what the Zenith on a Model A and an NH on a Model T run best at - anything else is usually too rich.
