Best I could do on it was lean the idle mixture screw some --- a little rougher idle and then increase the idle screw to about 550 rpm. I am running 10 btdc initial advance. This took most of the tip in hesitation out.

I will never get my wife to ride with me in this 1946 3/4 ton. Those straight cut gears in the crashbox 4 speed make some noise. I figure 40 mph will be top speed for me in it.
