      Indeed. Its amazing they run as well as they do, and dont ruin anything. My only concern now is how much this adjustment effected my MPG. We'll find out soon, as im headed for KY with my stepdad tomorrow, gonna go visit MRiddle while im there

        done this today
        found 5 needle shim positions, mine were in the mid so i lowered the shims a notch
        yet to test the effect
        thanks for the enlightment on the subject
