If so...it sits all the way at the bottom of the carb well and looks like it would be pretty tough to get out. How did you remove it? Is it pressed in there? Screwed in? Thanks.

I would say that a .080 main jet would help the stumble n power loss if nothing else is wrong. my old 460 with a 263, the carb jetting was .090 on the main jet size, but i had her running 2300rpm. ran great! another way would be to find a 715 combine carburator that has extra ports to deliver fuel better.

Not sure I want to go there yet. I need to eliminate all other possibilities before starting to modify things. When/if I ever get this sorted out...I'll let you guys know what I found.
