Finally got around to driving it this weekend. All has been normal. Idrove it about 12 miles. Stop and go, and at speed. Put my foot to it a couple times.

Kinda confirms for me what I thought originally when I saw the old filter packed with debris...something got past it and interfered with the carb, flooding it.

For now, so far so good. I'll check the filter again after I put some more miles on it.

And I won't be waiting 5 years to change it anymore, no matter how good she's running.
