The pivot plate moves and holds well. I am still wondering if it is the carb since I can start it without touching the gas initially, but once it stalls it takes several cranks to get it firing again.

There's also a ported vacuum fiiting directly in front of the carb that is just a plastic piece and is easily cracked by the air filter housing. ANY vacuum leaks will make you think the carb is not working, as I posted in a previous reply. I cursed my reman. carb for a long time until I found things like this and the electric choke power problem. Sounds like you found a good mechanic/ shop!!!

Well, the first two shops I took it to previously both blamed the carb. I went into this shop having already changed out the accel pump and fuel filter, so I suppose they had to start looking elsewhere.
