Throttle cable:
- Symptom: throttle was VERY sticky and VERY hard to operate
- Solution: Install a new cable and housing. Route it out to the front of the engine, and sweep back 180 degrees to enter the carb there. This required the carb to be turned so the inputs were facing the prop.

Needle/Mixture Adjustment:
- I was way too lean for the longest time, as I struggled to make the #2 needle work.
- I finally switched to the #2.5 needle and after some trial and error got it running great.
