2056, dual Dellortos, has been running well for a few years, except in hot humid weather. When it gets hot out, she is hard to start once warm, gotta open throttles all the way. Leaving from a red light also difficult, gotta "clear" the carbs out by opening throttle. Runs fine in high RPM (throttles open(ish)).

Current set-up:

Idle Jet = 55
Main Jet = 150
Emulsion Tube = 64
Air Correction (jet stack holder) = 180
Venturis = I forget, but she runs well in mild temps.

I am thinking idle jets can go down a size to 50, or maybe 45?

Pic because pics help everything (and don't bash my hex bar linkage, I quite like it)...

2056 With Delortos & Hex Bar

Vents - 34

Idle - 60

Main - 132

No problem hot starting... you sure it isn't ignition / timing related?
