speedy when I drill the holes should I close the secondarys ? what about the mixture screws close them too or take half turn all of them? the drill's really helped the carb to work fine but its not smooth I think it needs tune and the correct power valve I have 6.5's but they suck so I put the blocker instead and it works fine but not that fine
