Hello George,

First- thanks for all your help...

I suppose you're referring to what the su book calls the "throttle adjustment screw"?

I'm a little unwilling to touch the carbs as that's what got me into this mess so long ago, but it must be done.

The thermostat I bought has the typical round rubber gasket not U shaped, it sits flat- flush but seemed to shift and not center in the hole on the block, or the thermo housing.

I'll scrape it off and try again.

Thanks again for your time and patience!

Cheers,
greendread
