High screw almost in but still rich

Some carb cleaner attacks some plastics. Looks like you got lucky.

I hope that the hole in the back of your filter is sealed off well.

Its not a hole ..it was something like glue

In post 19, how would you know by looking at the carb which type you have, an Independant or Dependent carb?

In the metering side you’l only see one drilling that when you spray fuel into, feeds both sides through the venturi.

An easier way is to close the H screw at idle. If 1). Rpm changes (leans out) its dependant 2). Gradually squeeze the trigger with the H screw closed. If if dies right away, it’s dependant.

Does this only apply to Tillotsons? and not lets say to Walbros?

Are you referring to dependant vs Independant? It can be on any of the carbs you come across.

Yes that is what I meant, Thanks you for your information.
