I finally got around to miking the needles on three HT carburetors. One has been in use for 450 miles, the other two unused.
The one in use is much slimmer (more radical taper) than the other two, and came with the clip second from the top making it even richer. This was the machine I reduced the main jet from .028 to .024 inches and still is a little on the rich side. The clip is now on the top groove.
The other two needles are identical as far as I can tell and came with the clips on the very top groove.
We are in a cold snap, but as soon as I can I will measure the factory float level height on all three carbs weather permitting.
