Sorry for the long delay but I took a week vacation.

Howard, you had a great idea. I used a Daytona carb kit that did not use leather for the accelerator pump. I don't think the seal is messed up.

I had my son pump the gas pedal for me while I looked down the throat of the carb and the jet on the left would just drip and the one on the right did nothing.

Then I had my wife try in case my son was not pushing the gas hard enough. After enduring many blows of the "Aruga" horn in my ear (her idea of a joke), I noticed the left would squirt OK, but the right would just dribble.

I unscrewed the jet and used a small wire to push through the holes. Then I followed with some carb cleaner with the straw on the inside of each jet hole. Got a good spray so I reinstalled it. Maybe some trash got in the jet?

Now it has a slight delay with hard throttle and no more stalling! Thanks Howard!

I'll try to warm it up more and see how it performs another day.
