about a half. Gotta stop the leak in the carb first before I do anymore tinkering. Been cleaning it up though. Painted all 3 pieces of the exhaust, and gotta finish scrubbing the engine and bellypan etc etc.

The reason for the fuel level question is that if the pump in the carb is not working then it will only run well when the fuel level is above the carb.
You also have to make sure you don't have any internal leaks in the carb. Examine any flap type rubber/plastic parts inside for bends or tears.

kind of like an oversized chainsaw carb.
I already know it leaks.. Internal or external, the fucker leaks. All the diaphrams and O rings looked good. I'm sure I had to pinch an O ring, or got one of those fucking spacer/washer/diaphrams in fucked up.
Edit: Wanted to take some pics, but the fucking camera is missing again.

< damn kids
Got all 3 pieces of the exhaust painted now. Cleaning up the bellypan and touched up some rust spots with an aluminum colored paint. Doesn't quite match, but its under the exhaust and should help seal her up. Not gonna strip this thing down and make it a show piece, just make it nice enough for the kids, and me.
