[QUOTE="Andrew04, post: 322509, member: 8098"] There always needs to be some tuning after a carb re-build, I don't know what's adjustable on this motor, nut the low speed needle is going to have to be dialed in for it to run well, manual should outline process. Make sure all waterways are clear. Make sure oil level stays the same. Just run it to tune the carb and dont worry yet about the smoke, it's probably varnish from old fuel and all the stuff you used to clean the carb. If it is consuming oil that's another issue, but just get the carb tuned and worr about exhaust later. [/QUOTE]
