Holly G Carburetor Mixture Setting
Does anyone know what setting I should use for the initial mixture control setting on this Holly G carburetor? The rod that controls it was binding and in the process of fixing that, I stupidly forgot to note the exact setting before I started messing with it.

Re: Holly G Carburetor Mixture Setting
Generally the setting for initial would be 7/8 to 1 turn out from close.
Lots depends on the condition of the carb, try this initial, if trouble running, then turn out (more rich) by 1/4 turns of the knob
Don't forget to choke some on a cold start.
