A Metering Lever set too low will decrease the volume of gasoline held in the
Metering Chamber. This will force the Fuel Needle to be set more than 3/4 turn
from STOP to compensate for less gasoline in the Metering Chamber.
A Metering Lever set too far out will increase the volume of gasoline held in the
Metering chamber. This will force the Fuel Needle to be set at less than 3/4 turn
from STOP.
If the internal Carburetor parts are replaced or removed it is a good idea to check
the Metering Lever adjustment. The metering lever is adjusted in relationship to
the circuit plate as shown in the Metering Lever Adjustment Diagram (Fig. 12 ).
Be careful that the Metering Lever tip is not set farther out than 0.031 inches
(0.787 mm), since this passageway through the Carburetor is to remain open all
the time. A setting of more than 0.031 inches (0.787 mm) will cause the machine
to flood and be extremely difficult to clear from the flooded condition. After
adjusting the Metering Lever, be sure to readjust the Fuel Needle.
