Well, no answer from Apple Hyd on the carb problems.
I think I know a way to make the carbs work, just raise the needles.
(they measure 0.100" at the root of the needle)
Keith, is this nuts? I'm thinking just 1/16", .032 or so.

You shouldn't have to raise the needles. Flush with the face should be good
to go. What needles did they use? I've heard that Apple did these carbs but
I'm not famaliar with their work. If you pull the needles out there is likely
to be some letters/numbers stamped on the base. Nissan tends to mark them with
painted numbers and letters that don't last well but the Brits still stamp
them. If they have simply installed the wrong needles they are not likely to
ever work properly.
With the mixture knobs all the way up the nozzle should be even with the top
of the nozzle holder.
It's really hard to sort these things out this way. If you would like you
can send them to me and I'll take a look. Drop me a note off list.
