Was the float level and the accelerator well tubes modified that way to try and fix this rich problem ? Not sure what you are talking about when referring to accelerating well tubes . Are these the tubes that are supposed to feed fuel into the secondaries as the flaps start to open ? Also when you are on the 2 step , are you flooring the accelerator pedal ?
