I have a 1943 H, i have given the motor new rings, rod and main bearings. I had a hole in my manifold welded with nickle rod. i have a new head which i re seated the valves in. new head gasket also. I also have a rebuilt carb on it. at max RPM, it fires beautifully with out a problem. but when i turn down my idle screw it doesnt run smooth anymore, it gets rough. also after turning the idle so low to a certain point it backfires out the carb. can anyone help me? im clueless here.... id like to get the idle slow and smooth like its supposed to be. any help will be greatly appreciated! im young and eager to learn. rebuilding this piece of history at the age of 19 is one hell of a learning experience
