I don't understand that pixel thing from my post below with the pic. How come the pic is so blurry here and I can fill my screen with it on this end and have it crisp?

Oh well, maybe I'm better off with 60 year old technology. I didn't mention before that I put in the oil you guys recommended...stuff kind of looked like honey and it took forever to go down the funnel. She fired right up like she almost always does and I drove her around a little. Still idles nice and throttles up smoothly BUT I have to do that main jet thing still and that gets done "under load". I tried putting a mower on it....too much "load". I have almost every 3 pt tool made. What is a good tool to use for the "load"? Brakes are not good so using them for a load is a little dicey.

Another question....I am probably going to do a compression test eventually. Don't have the tool for this so I was wondering could you recommend a good one?

I think you copied the URL for the "thumbnail." You spose to "click" the "thumbnail" to "view" the larger picture then get the URL of the larger picture.
I just keep clicking pictures until clicking dosn"t do anything and then I right click the picture left over to copy the URL.

Did you resize it after you put it on photobucket?? You can resize them,smaller at least right on their site..I use them for my hosting,I have to resize them down about 50% to make"em dial up friendly..

No, I didn't do anything to resize it....somebody else did that after I posted it. When I put it on photobucket it was small like that and I just transferred it over here. I looked and they only allow a reduction in size not an increase so I don't know how the increase was achieved. Kind of like to know how to make a bigger picture with clarity so I can include them in my posts.

A rotary mower would be a good load.. etc.

A chinese tool store will have an inexpensive comp tester..

Mainjet is easy to tweak. Get it set so that you can goose the throttle without it stumbling.. but not so much that it puffs black smoke. Now load it up.. if it is a little anemic on power.. enrich it some.. .just find a happy medium between power and black smoke.. then pretty much leave it... carbs don't need to be messed with often.

I'm gonna pass on the mower (too hard, too dangerous) and the chinese tools...thanks but I hate to buy tools that were once old tractors.

I have a lot of good advice regarding the main jet including yours. I'll get to it this week sometime. It's pretty hectic now and the rains are back. Sears has a compression kit that looks pretty nice that I will look at. Probably made in China too. I had about 25 psi oil pressure at idle after the oil change and about 35 when throttled up. I'd be interested in checking compression now to see where that is at.

Your right.. the sear tester is probably chineese.. except it will cost 3x to 4x more than a plain marketed chineese one.. That's a tad steep for a diagnostic tool you may use only once.. Tools that I will use once then lose or forget about, I sometimes get cheap ones... like wrenches that I need to bend or cut down... kmart specials... Then I've got my 'real' tools put up in the good tool box.. etc.
