YS 53 is running I hope?
Thanks Dave for the help! I took the regulator a part and blew out all the ports ( on engine side with the high end needle out and though-out the regulator) I also had the low end way to rich. So hopefully, it will run again.
Another question, On Rick Mattie YS Doctor web site he states:
"Another trick to test if the mixture is correct is to pull off the fuel line at the carburetor at idle. There should not be any fuel coming out of the fuel line. If you do, you are still to rich. This is best done on the bench and not on the plane."
If there's no fuel coming out, then where does the engine get it's fuel during idle?
