LOL. View attachment 1715879495

When below 14"Hg it effects the flows through circuit restrictions, so I use that as a reference point.
However when around 11-13" Hg isn't that bad for a hot rod.

Anyway, the spec from QF is helpful. One restriction we would really like to know in this situation is the Idle Feed (IFR).
Three things control the amount of fuel being moved toward the intake when the throttles are in idle position (and off-idle)
1. Idle feed restriction
2. Idle Air bleed
3. Transfer slot above and below the throttle.
If an engine is stock or close to it, I consider 15hg pretty crappy. It should be more like 18-21. Course I say that with a slant 6 that idles at 6hg. LOL
 
where to look yes, but how to measure no
Need a set of micro drills or pin gauges. Drills can be bought at a hobby and model shop or industrial/machinist supply.
Use the shank of the drill bits to measure the hole size.
A set like this has #80 to 61 bits.
Photos here: Carb tuning, larger accelerator pump nozzle?
Example of a set here: McMaster-Carr
You may also be able to use a spark plug gapping set if its the type with the open wire of sizes up through .035" or so.

The IFR should be here

But on a QF will more likely be here

They will probably be 0.033" to 0.037" - Just my guess.

Just sitting by the pool here in Vietnam in the shade drinking a Tiger beer, smoking a cigar. Waiting for all you people in the US to wake up
 
Morning, I guess I'm up. I woke up unable to breathe my nose was clogged/impacted due to congestion.
Took about ten minutes to clear and then couldn't go back to sleep. Guess I'm up.

That looks really tasty! We got a call yesterday, our 1/2 pork is ready for pick up at butchers, headed in with cooler on Friday. Wife want's me to pick up some chicken there as well, commissary has been completely out last 2 times we went (supply issues).
 
So I came home from commissary with Banquet fried chicken in a box and waffle fries lol!
The chicken in VN is pretty tough, cause they are free run chickens. But they have a Lottieria here ( kinda like a burger king. I have bought the fried chicken there. Almost like KFC. Pretty good..
 
I blew it on my Kubtota maintenance, 99 hours and no oil change. Mfgr. recommends 50 hours, some say 70-80 okay but I'm thinking not for first one. Filters are supposed to arrive tomorrow then I'll go take out a second mortgage for the two gallons of Shell Rotella 5W40 synthetic I'm going to put in it lol!

What about store shelfs, empty in places too or like normal?

Everything is very normal here in Vietnam. They are still a little afraid of covid. So they are all masked up most of the time. I don't know why, it's not deadly anymore
 
In two weeks Vietnam will be fully open to any tourist or travelers that want to come here. No quarantine. Just require proof of vaccine.
 
The state I live in can't decide what they are gonna do. First the Gov comes out with March 21st no masks. Next day CDC comes out with new guidelines that are more lenient so they're "back to the drawing board". Been waffling the whole time lol! I'm good with no masks now, sick of them!

Is it the State of confusion ??? :poke::poke:
 
I need to change the oil and filter on the JD zero turn I bought last spring. Only has 33 hours on it.
No food problems beef/chicken other than the price. I feel though it's not going to get better anytime soon.
Looking at the gas prices continue to increase. I hope it levels off. I don't won't pay $5 a gallon to drive to Carlisle and back.
Wait and see.
