I may toss on a weber carb, I'm getting for cheap and see if I pass visual and sniff with that..

I was going to mess with the fuel mixture but I have fubared the cap and possible the screw.. ...So I'll have to find a way to get the cap off..

I would like to find another carb for cheap and rebuild it... a little worried about messing up this one..

my 84 22r carb motor will warm up just fine at about 1500(choke set) then it will idle to liek 200rpm for a few seconds wanting to die then the idle goes to 900(choke opens) might just be a little dirty carb. mine runs fine after that. these engines are sometimes tricky when there cold. eletric choke sometimes doesnt like to work like it should.
