carbking Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 The idle jet in this carb is really marginal for the Hudson engine at 0.028. My guess would be an 0.031 or 0.032 idle jet would allow the engine idle to smooth. You certainly can drill the existing jet; but if you do so, drill it in 0.001 increments, just in case I am incorrect.Jon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
