careful with leaning it out. don't run smaller jets than it was supposed to have. stupid ethanol crap they sell us now makes for leaner running. my 72 cb350 is having problems with that due the dinosaur "piss" we are getting. had the top end redone with port and valve work and it ran fine afterwards (still had regular gas back then), so i know its the gas mucking it all up now.

they stopped doing smog checks in maine many years ago. and i will be banging on every (state) government door the moment they get the bright idea to re institute it. i was ready to cry rape when they bumped the inspection price from $6 to $12. if it is old enough not to have a catalytic converter it should be exempt!
