Steve,
Thanks for the reminder on the decimal diameter being wrong, the drill blank #37 was correct.

Bring a large box of new plugs if you have one set up like that!

... well that explains why my carb that I thought was stock wouldn't run on gas and why I was using a whole tank full of fuel just cranking the motor over :lol:

OK, another mistake, sorry, the image above and on the website pages has been corrected, hopefully it's right now (it only took a few years to get it right!)

Jeff
