I ran a DE this past weekend. It seemed that with each session, idle became a bit rougher and slower. By the end of the day, a few friends said it sounded like I was running on 3 cylinders coming back into the paddock. I suspect a dirty fuel filter and /or clogged idle jets. WOT was pretty reasonable.
Where are the idle jets on these carbs? Do I need to pull the top half off to get to them? If so, do I need a need gasket to reassemble? I have no idea if they have even been split and Jake built the motor about 4 years ago. Thanks and any help. Hal |

One thing you can do is to get the car up to operating temp and then back out the idle jet carrier about a half to one full turn. If the engine stumbles then that jet is probably working OK, if nothing happens then that jet or the idle jet passage is probably clogged.
