Exclamation Floats and butterflies

Hey Gotsnake,

I have no idea, I don't know what a floats or butterflys are. I am an idiot with that stuff, I just like driving the darn thing.

He did adjust the float and the primary and secondaries on the carb because they were not opening all the way or the right way. He started messing with the timing but we ran out of time.

He also did something with the choke, basically turned it off. I don't really drive it in cold weather, but when it sits for a while, I have to feather the gas for a few seconds when I start it up, where before I could just turn the key and go. He said it would help with the float adjustement, I have no idea how or why, but you might.

Feel free to call Frank at Komet. Hope that helps,

Jim

Oh, and Sid, feel free to do burn outs in front of my house, but for goodness sake, WASH IT FIRST!
