Howdy, Folks,
I'm a new member here, so I'd guess that this topic has been covered. But going through the thousands of posts became a bit daunting.. So, I apologize for my ignorance in advance...
I just bought a new Whizzer and, in the process of getting the needle-valve set at the right notch in the main jet, found myself pondering how to get rid of the restrictor at the input to the intake manifold. Has anyone done that? If so, how did you do it?
I've read a few things here and there on the internet. But none of the folks elsewhere answered some fundamental problems...
One person said to hog-out the gasket material with a hand drill, but said nothing about how to keep bits of gasket pieces out of the intake manifold. Another person said to remove the thick restrictor gasket, but said nothing about why you might want to isolate the carb from engine heat with an insulating gasket..
Any ideas, or references to previous posts, would be appreciated.
