I put a new kit and pv in the carb a couple of weeks ago and it is a lot better! I'm still having some idle issues, just not smooth as I think it should be, but it doesn't die or anything at a stop. Whenever I have time I'm going to re adjust the idle screws. Timing chain is about 7-800 miles new. Rings seem to be adjusted fine. Engine doesn't seem to be too tight and runs good. Just not getting the mileage I used to before all the changes seems like but don't really know for sure.
