When I checked mine it was 0.030" so it was off a good bit. I loosened the pump and advanced it until I got it to 0.050" or 1.27 mm and called it good. Threw it all back together and re bled it. It's running good now. I am gonna mark this for reference and do an 1/8" bump here soon. Also gonna mess with the full power screw. I need to get a new fuel pin and governor spring while I'm at it. I'm ready to burn rubber!

Good to hear. I am loving this build. Can't wait to see a video of the ol girl driving down the road.
