I think you should wait and try the new manifold and carb and not modify the heat riser at this point. With the new parts, you are going to have a totally different set up. Like you said, the new carb and manifold may solve a lot of your problems. It will be a little more work if it doesn't work having to take the manifold off again, but I think you would rather have it work unmodified than modified right?

If it still is not fixed, try the diesel fuel additive. If that works, you will rule out most other possibilities and narrow it down to the fuel. Maybe a little tweaking of the settings at that point will give you the performance you should have and you would no longer need the diesel. Just my
