Hey Darrell;

I'm sure you already checked the diaphragms. Before you start tearing
everything apart, use the old propane test to see if you have any leaks.

Hey Guys,  
 
Weekend warrior here battling a running fault on the 71 TR6.  I was
fighting 
an idling problem last Fall.  The motor would stall if I popped  the
throttle 
and let it brake down to idle.  Pretty much every time which  made going
slow 
around turns an adventure.  These are the Strommies that I  had the needle 
valve problems on.  First one was stuck open then one stuck  closed.  I also

fooled with the float levels some to prevent running out of  gas on Sharpe
right 
hand turns.
I have had this before on the 250 but never the Six.  She would always  purr

like a Kitten @ 800 revs. Now I have to turn the idle up considerably to
keep 
her running.
Before I tear into it, any words of wisdom?
Thanks,
Darrell
