Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

As I said, maybe one size under, not enough to make it act as you are running out of gas under throttle.

Ok, again rejetted carb, raised the needles, adjusted floats, benched synced, mixture screw at 2-1/4 turns. What am I getting in a jet kit that I have not done here? Just asking for some advice on what could be the problem or what I should try, other than "I bet he has chrome filters". This is my fourth Gs engine project, and have had no problems until now. Oh, and by the way I have k&N filters, tried them too, same results.
Thanks anyway
"raised the needles"???
are they adjustable or did you just shim them?
fact is that you can not make a GS with vacuum carbs run throughout the entire RPM range properly with out a st.3 jet kit when using air filters.
this info is for US models only.
i just gave you 20+ years of trials and tribulations...thats why dynajet starting making the kits.
adjustable needles that have a different shape...more taper...not blunt.
