Main fuel needle fine or replace?

[JohnnyTillotson]

Would you just stick the bottom one back in the carb or would u change it anyway. In comparing it with the replacement i dont see much of a difference at all. I dont see an edge or squaring off at the tip the way the manual shows whens its bad. I just feel the original parts are better than these new ones. Prob just a superstition on my part.

Heres the idle screw. Definitely a difference there

looks to me like the new main jet won't go as deep into the carb as the orig..less adjustment...

So the new unused needle sux just by its very design?

Yes, the threads will cut up the O-Ring.

Just another note;

Note; Blackened metal is heat treated, Very Good :thumbsup:

Replacement kits, Most of the time use soft metal's ( Silver OR Gold treated coloring )

Which are often damaged easily if not used properly.

The black metal one however, are rarely damaged, unless by rust and, or, pitting.
