I think it's what Chapter Twelve in norman's post refers to.

Are you sure your new aircleaner or gasket is not blocking the "air bleed" port on the carburetor mouth? I don't think anyone has mentioned that yet.

That new aircleaner looks nice, seems they come from my city.

Confirmed with my indie mechanic, the new AC has me either rejetting, putting in a Mikuni or S&S, or just selling the AC.

Do you guys recommend a new carb or should I try a rejet first?
