John---Going back to the first post on where you have the needle height set, at two turns down from full rich. This setting would not normally produce the 12:1 or 13:1 richness as shown by your monitor. I'm now also suspecting that your float levels may be too high. They should be set  close to .625.  If you find that this is in spec and the oil used in the dashpots (20w/50 is good) it could well be that the needle selection does not allow for enough fuel flow right off idle.  The B1AF theoretically should work, at least not stumble, but some temporary dropping of the LEDs will show up at engine speeds lower than 2500, at sudden, deep throttle openings.
