So over the holidays I finally got around to rebuilding my stock aisan carb. Followed pinheads videos and the FSM and all was well with the world. Got everything together and it ran great for about a week. Then a piece of dirt/debri made it's way into the carb and plugged up one of the jets. Pulled it apart, cleaned it, and then the trouble began. From that point on I cannot get the bowl from overflowing or running dry. It either A) slowly overfills the bowl so it floods at idle (runs great at throttle), or B) the level stays low (below sight glass) and runs dry under throttle (great around town, terrible on freeway).
I've tried adjusting it 6+ times. The FSM height of 6mm was way too high (flooded immediately), currently around 10-11mm and it floods, 12mm runs dry.... Float moves freely and nothing appears to impeding it's movement. I haven't touched it in a few weeks to give myself some decompression time and hopefully go at it again this weekend.
Ultimately I'm asking 1) Is there a common cause of this issue (besides user error)? 2) Do I just need to suck it up and give it a few more goes? 3) Is there something I'm just entirely missing?
