Hey TKO I've been up in Delaware Built a power plant in Dover a few years back, but the only humidity I had to deal with was white, Must'a been wrong time of the year LOL, Any way I live just north of Biloxi/Gulfport Mississippi say about 14 miles north of the beach and its 98% humidity 98 deg. no rain in sight, AC would be nice in the shop but it cost me around $350 per month to keep the lights on and my head cool in a 2000sq ft. house. I do believe you have a more gentle Utility than we do.

FYI Ford, Classic Mustang Tech Discussion » 2100 carb questions. Idle is extremely rich. » 4/02/2017 11:03 PM

On that clogged Idle circuit. Quick fix that sometimes works, is to get it running with the breather off, rev it up, then with it revved close the choke and hold it a few seconds, usually will suck minor clogs out pretty quick.
