Not officially "due" for a valve check but.....do you know for SURE that the PO had it done initially at 600-1000 miles like he was supposed to do?? If not, you should consider doing it.
AND
You should heed the very good advice in the previous post, in that if you get your "tool" working properly and it appears that the flow is out of "sync", you should check the valves BEFORE you go changing the carb flow. I didn't read his whole post in detail but you should also inspect the rubber boots to be sure they are snug and not leaking too.
Sometimes I wish the people you "meet" here lived closer together so we could trade test rides for stuff like this. Wanna meet in Northern Indiana some time ?? :shocked: :crackup
