OK, you have my interest..Where are you and how much are looking to get for the motor and carbs.

I make go karts out old honda's and I have one now that is really arocket ship (It has a 550). I ham having a some trouble with it missing a bit midrange, I am uncertain of how to correct this as everybody tells it is dirty carbs.

There is air bleed screw onthe botton of each carb (Just in front of the fuel bowl) and I have been told lost of different setting there, but everbody is telling 3/4 to 1 turn. Do you have any idea..

Thanks
