Hello all, Last year with the excellent help of many members on here i got my`68- 9.5 up and running good now. It starts on 2-3 pulls when cold and about 1/2 pull when it been warmed up. Last fall the weather came in and i wasn`t able to fine tune the low speed setting on it. So heres my question, i took it out for the first time and it idles good and trolls down low where i have the ss jet set at, but at full throttle if you close off the slow speed circuit the motor picks up rpms and a little bit of speed. Does fuel continuosly flow through the slow speed along with the high speed jet at full throttle so its just leaning it out when i close off the slow speed circuit? I`m not going to run it like that but curious if this normal on how the the carb operates? Thanks, always trying to learn more!

you will still get fuel thru low speed jet, when running fast.

Yes, thanks. That makes sense why it leaned it out some and picked up some rpm`s.
