Thanks Stan. The temp setting is consistent on all 3 carbs but the idle is
not very good until it gets really warm and then goes too high. The idle
bypass valves probably also need to be adjusted. Thanks for the info.

John, if you have not already done so take a look at Nelson's write up where
he says:
"Steve Sutton has researched this issue and found considerable variations
among temperature compensators. He even found new ones set as much as 20
degrees apart. His research has shown best operation with the valve just
starting to open at 115 F and fully open at 140 F. His view (which I
concur) is that matching the compensators in a multiple carb system is
probably more important than the actual temperature at which they open."

Glad you guys are hanging in there. A question for you. At what
temperature should temperature compensators be set?
