I bumped the idle jets in my carbs up a size 2 weeks ago, and still have not re-adjusted them for better running.

I hate adjusting my carbs! Especially when it is hot out. But a 1400 RPM idle is just embarrasing, and I am sure I am running way rich.

Quick, everyone poke fun so I have some reason to get to work this week and get those puppies back into line.
