Going back to tuning carb, did you set throttle stop screw before touching anything else?. Must be done or everything else is a waste of time. Also check choke when cold, flap should be open a tad, not tight shut. If adjustment required slacken the three screws and rotate choke body as...

Im well familiar with tuning carbs. With these Solex 34's i turn in small screw very slowly till revs just start to fall, then turn back out till it smooths out, the another half a turn, then set idle speed with large screw. That said i usually hook up my CO meter, fine adjust if necessary to...

Good news!. What's your, 'newly imprinted guide' ? 🤔
