the spring in my original driven was dead dead dead.
it'd try to open immediately.
yours may be there or on the way.

what msm is saying is right - w/ parallel steering arms you'll get no proper ackerman.
you're seeing a big discrepancy between the two wheel deltas anyway.
that says to me something's goofy in the geometry.
the pitman can't change ackermann angle by definition.

low float level will make a carb run leaner than spec.
raising it will fatten it up.....so if you're low now and rich something aint right.
better cylinder fill shouldn''t change the a/f ratio.
all these small motors with little to no quench tend to carbon up.
i wouldnt use that as a jetting reference - read the plug porcelain for color.
idk wtf to say about your fuel line experiment....the only thing it coulda done was artificially cause the float level to drop....it runs better then before, it's gotta be rich now.....which it totally shouldn't be w/ the open pipe and free intake.
but when the theory doesnt fit chuck it out.
how about brazing up the jet hole and drilling a new smaller one?
