Bill,
I am running a fuel pump, and i will monitor the float level if it becomes 
necessary, one way or another.
Thanks for pointing that out.

Richard

Richard,
You should seriously consider a clear float bowl. On engines capable of
pulling high vacuum WOT often will drain the float bowl if you don't
run a fuel pump. The resultant lean condition isn't good for your
engine!

Hi Lynn,


I am running my 12A single with gear box and Prop now.

The carb is a 36mm Mikuni. It does flow 5gph fuel at 5000rpm. Havent
done any tuning so far. The reason for using this carb is, I had it. I
did run WOT the other day, and at around 5500rpm, the mixture went
totally out of wack, lean. Already installed a bigger main jet, no run
yet.

I could probabely use your info about a flow bench somewhere down the
road.


Thanks


Richard.
