Well, I did get it to finally start about 2 weeks ago, and it sounds great. I need to tune it at this point, but I am holding off because I first need to replace the float in the secondaries.
After solving my leak issues I found I had gas flowing up through the vent on the secondaries. After confirming the needle valve was good, it had to be related to the float. I hope to get a chance to work on that this weekend.
But in the meantime, I am able to run the engine on the primaries and plug the secondaries, and it sounds great. Very pleased!
Happy Thanksgiving!
