Default Re: Terrible milage
From observing my gas level gauge it seems like my issue is still around. Used 1/4 of a tank for a distance of 11 miles. I was thinking about buying a new metering block and replacing the needle and seat just to see if that affects the milage. buying a new carburetor for about $500 isn't out of the question, the metering block is $200 plus another $30 for a new needle and seat. Maybe a new needle and seat first and then revaluate the problem. any ideas?

thanks
