My new to me 1951 M is now running nicely. There was blockage in one of the "worm holes" in the top part of the carb. i blew it out with a air compresser, then i checked each hole with a straw to see if i could pass air thru thru each of them. well when i put the air compresser to it $hit went flying and hit me in my face so i was hoping that was my problume. Put it back on and she runs good with no choke! I always had to run it with half choke before. It just needs some fine tunning now. when i really accelerate fast it wants to starve just a little so i need to adjust the carb to its sweet spot. I set the main 3 turns from seat and idle 1 turn from seat. Plus im gonna replace the plugs with d-19's instead of d-15's. i know some of you guys dont like champion plugs, but i never had a bad plug from them and they always seem to last as long as I expected. i know some people sand blast the tips but at 1.88 a plug i will just replace them. thank you to all that helped me out. I knew it has to be a carb problume. the gas must of sat for a lone time leaving behind a white powder crap that looked like sement! i will probally take it back off and let it sit in carb cleaner for a few days and then give it a good cleaning with the air compresser. plus since the orginal screen is missing from the carb i will put on another inline filter to keep the carb nice and clean. It don;t take much to make them carbs act up.

With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I’m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I’ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I’ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see.
