So I changed out the fuel filter and lines and it runs much better, anything was better than that, but it is still inconsistent. I still have to feather the throttle on take off, sometimes it picks right up and other times it don't. Sometimes it will only rev to 4K other times 5, then it will go all the way to 7 all on the same run, when it does go to 7 in 2nd or 3rd, it's almost hard to keep ahold of it, engine at proper running temp° & mixture screw 3 turns out.

But I'm looking forward to messing with that kind of thing again now. Cos now I've got oil coming out of places that shouldn't have any oil, namely, the timing belt cases.

This can only mean that one or both of the new cam oil seals I installed has failed, so now it's got to come down again. Unless of course it's the oil seal that seals off the crankshaft, (I'm sure there must be one,) but that's a worst case scenario, I'm gonna run it with belt covers off and find out.

PS. Did what ya'all said ekvh & zman, and no difference. Thanks anyway!
