Default Re: Can't get the idle right

I had the same problem with idling and found the gas was leaking out of the carb after I overhauled one. A member on line had suggested I remove the top of the carb and fill the bottom portion to see if there is any leaks around the bas of the two jets. I had overtightened the cap jet and it was cracked at the base which allowed the gas to run out. Whenever I end up with a poor idling situation its usually too much gas.
